Big tech companies, including Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, have collaborated on an open source project called Kro - the Kubernetes Resource Orchestrator.
Kro aims to simplify Kubernetes custom resource orchestration and address the challenge of resource orchestration while maintaining cloud flexibility.
The collaboration emerged in response to customer demand for a Kubernetes-native, cloud-agnostic tool that can run on any Kubernetes cluster provided by any vendor.
Kro, still in its alpha stage, has attracted significant community interest and is focused on enabling core features and becoming production-ready.
