The Composition Dynamic Controller (CDC) is the execution engine of Krateo. It is a specialized operator that manages the full lifecycle of Helm-based services by watching and reconciling Composition resources.
- Lifecycle Orchestration: Manages the end-to-end deployment, updates, and deletion of services based on Helm charts.
- Dynamic Reconciliation: Automatically reconciles resource states, ensuring the live cluster matches the desired state defined in the
Composition. - Chart Inspector Integration: Leverages the Krateo Chart Inspector for secure dry-runs, ensuring chart validity and resource safety before application.
- RBAC Enforcement: Provisions specific, fine-grained RBAC policies for each managed composition, enforcing least-privilege principles at the instance level.
- Graceful Lifecycle Management: Supports advanced management features like service pausing/resuming and controlled Helm release versioning.
- Observability: Built-in support for OpenTelemetry to monitor reconciliation health and performance metrics.
