summary
Shows concrete demos: installs controllers with Helm, gives cluster IAM creds, kubectl apply creates an S3 bucket via AWS Controllers for Kubernetes (ACK) and a Redis MemoryStore instance via Config Connector, both visible in their cloud consoles. Demonstrates OpenPolicyAgent Gatekeeper rejecting a Redis v6 instance while allowing v5, proving policy enforcement works. Presents Crossplane multi-cloud control plane composing AWS and GCP resources from one GKE cluster, notes IAM scope and Git/CICD placement as real operational constraints.
