Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Helm is both "package manager" and "templating engine" - probably the best package manager but horrible template engine
We created adeploy, which is using Jinja Templating to render Manifests out of a set of template files and variables. We added some functions i.e. to set versions, create labels, include files or to handle secret creation using gopass and support to run in CI/CD without re-creating secrets. Source + (some) docs: https://github.com/awesome-it/adeploy

HELM vs KUSTOMIZE
We wrote adeploy which brings Jinja templating for both vanilla manifests and Helm Charts which includes a bench of useful Jinja templating functions i.e. for labeling, secret management etc... The tool supports multiple deployments at different namespaces/releases with different Jinja variables and also includes support to deploy secrets directly from GoPass. It can also be used in CI/CD while secrets are not re-deployed when running via CI/CD. The tool still lacks of some detailed docs and a public pip repo, but this is wip.

Automated provisioning for data resources
In the overall scheme of things , look at services like backstage.io , crossplane.io and opslevel.com to get ideas. This is not necessarily an endorsement of the services. If all you want is to handle cloud resources and that's it, Terraform can be enough with what ever flavor of web technologies you and your team are comfortable with and can support it along the way. Doesn't take much to create a js based website to collect data from a form, or use other means to collecting data as long as its recorded and transparent for accountability.

Crossplane: Unifying platform engineering based on Kubernetes API
XRs are written in a fully declarative manner. And when I am building my XR from underlying managed resources provided by some crossplane provider I need to parametrize resources, use conditionals and create arrays of resuorces The issues of declarativeness in the world of automation are well known- we typically resort to some form of templating and we invent some imperative expressions into that templating language/format. This is currently not very well supported with Crossplane however Crossplane team realizes this issue and they are conteptualizing solution here

What options are available for using internal code from a fully open source project?
I have an idea for a project that would interface with Crossplane. The project has some code that would save tons of time if I could use it directly in my project, but it is located in the internal directory. I can't import the modules directly, but the project is open sourced under an Apache 2.0 license, so the code itself is available for use under that license.

Azure vs AWS
There are always new projects like crossplane that sit on top on architecture systems like terraform, vagrant. The pressure to abstract away any sort of resources is mounting, companies can save a lot by for example by alt hosting S3 endpoints. The train is going the direction not to tie anything to a specific platform implementation if its not a must. Most of the companies I work with use AWS as a hosting provider, but Microsoft for github and related CI matters. As I learned, AWS quality is very dependent on location, eu-central-1 is dead stable for our use cases serving about millions requests a day.

One multi-container deployment vs. a separate deployment for each image?
Practically, you'll be replacing stock k8s resources (deployments) with custom ones like Argo Rollouts with Keda autoscaling, so you have to plan the respective Gitops CD pipeline (fluxcd/argocd with some crossplane), as well.
