Building a self-service kubernetes platform for python developers
summary
Claims a self‑service path that cuts namespace + DB + secret + LB provisioning from days or weeks to minutes by combining concrete tools: Helm onboarding chart for namespaces/limits, Crossplane + ExternalSecrets to auto‑create RDS and sync AWS Secrets Manager into the cluster, and the AWS Load Balancer Controller to provision ALBs. A Flask app demo actually provisions RDS, syncs credentials, gets an ALB and connects successfully; cluster policy via Kyverno policy (audit→enforce) blocks bad secret usage and supports exceptions.
