Cluster API Deep Dive
summary
Cluster API provides declarative CRDs and controllers to create, upgrade and operate clusters using four controller managers (core, bootstrap, infrastructure, control plane) and interchangeable providers. The demo uses the tinkerbell provider to PXE-boot five physical machines, write an OS image to disk, drop cloud-init pointing at a Hegel metadata URL, run kubeadm (Kubernetes 1.18.15) and join nodes; three workers converge to Ready after CNI. Roadmap targets v0.4 (v1alpha4) for UX and stability in Q2 2021.
