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.

Building a Kubernetes Operator with the Operator Framework
Kubernetes Operators simplify the management of complex applications on Kubernetes. In this guide, we'll walk through creating a simple Kubernetes Operator using the Operator Framework. We'll also cover setting up a local Kubernetes cluster with KIND (Kubernetes in Docker) and deploying the Operator to the KIND cluster.

Writing a Kubernetes Operator
Since Go got generics, working with the Kubernetes API could become far more ergonomic. It's been pulling teeth until now. I'm eager to see how the upstream APIs change over time.
In the mean time, one of the creators of the Operator Framework[0] built a bunch of useful patterns using generics that we used to build the SpiceDB Operator[1] called controller-idioms[2].
Does anyone know of other efforts to improve the status quo?

is there a way to set expiry date for k8s rbac setting?
There are many frameworks, like the Operator Framework (https://operatorframework.io/) to the MetaController (https://github.com/metacontroller/metacontroller) to KubeBuilder(https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubebuilder) to the Kubernetes Operator Framework (kopf, https://kopf.readthedocs.io/en/stable/), among others.

How OLM helps to install and upgrade operators
Operator lifecycle manager (OLM) is a Kubernetes feature & is part of Operator framework which provides tools that helps in the development and management of operators. OpenShift 4.x is build using different operators that manages cluster components like api-server, etcd, authentication, OAuth, ingress, etc. OpenShift makes use of OLM to install these operators as part of cluster build & OLM comes by default with OpenShift. OLM is an operator itself and understanding how it manages the operator lifecycle using different CRD’s & its flow is important, which I have explained in my article.

Operators are so much easier to click-install -- how do I get them back out as manifests?
The documentation gives you all available options, but many of them are optional. If you know the package name of the operator (which you can get either via oc get packagemanifests or kubectl operator list-available from the kubectl plugin all you really need is:

How do Kubernetes Operators Handle Concurrency?
By default, operators built using Kubebuilder and controller-runtime process a single reconcile request at a time. This is a sensible setting, since it's easier for operator developers to reason about and debug the logic in their applications. It also constrains throughput from the controller to core Kubernetes resources like ectd and the API server.

How to Write a Kubernetes Operator Using client-go
client-go is the official Golang client for Kubernetes, responsible for interacting with the Kubernetes API server using REST API. In fact, client-go can do almost anything, not just for writing operators. Even the internal implementation of kubectl is based on client-go. As for more specialized frameworks used to write operators, including controller-runtime, kubebuilder, and operator-sdk, they will be introduced later in this series.

From Whispers to Wildfire: Celebrating a Decade of Kubernetes
And it is only because of the focus on extensibility and interoperability that today, we can run WebAssembly workloads in Kubernetes so seamlessly. SpinKube is an open source stack of projects for running WebAssembly applications. A core piece of the stack is a containerd shim. I remember when containerd was donated to the CNCF in 2017. That took work and collaboration from several companies, most notably Docker, to make happen. SpinKube also depends on CRDs and operators. I recall seeing one the early demos of scaffolding an operator and a CRD in a SIG meeting from Phillip Wittrock, who went on to work on Kubebuilder in a Kubernetes SIG. Kubebuilder is a key piece of SpinKube’s Spin operator development. As I reflect on the last decade, I appreciate every contribution even more deeply.

SpinKube: Orchestrating light, fast and efficient WebAssembly (Wasm) workloads in Kubernetes (k8s)
The Spin operator uses the Kubebuilder framework and contains a Spin App Custom Resource Definition (CRD) and controller. It watches Spin App Custom Resources and realizes the desired state in the K8s cluster. Aside from the immediate benefits gained by running Wasm workloads in k8s, additional optimizations such as Horizontal Pod Scaling (HPA) and k8s Event-driven Autoscaling (KEDA) can be achieved in a pinch.

Annotations in Kubernetes Operator Design
The operator that I've been working on is designed to manage the full lifecycle of a QuestDB database instance, including version and hardware upgrades, config changes, backups, and (eventually) recovery from node failure. I used the Operator SDK and kubebuilder frameworks to provide scaffolding and API support.

Kubebuilder Tips and Tricks
Recently, I've been spending a lot of time writing a Kubernetes operator using the go operator-sdk, which is built on top of the Kubebuilder framework. This is a list of a few tips and tricks that I've compiled over the past few months working with these frameworks.

We moved our Cloud operations to a Kubernetes Operator
Since we built our operator using the Kubebuilder framework, most standard monitoring tasks were handled for us out-of-the-box. Our operator automatically exposes a rich set of Prometheus metrics that measure reconciliation performance, the number of k8s API calls, workqueue statistics, and memory-related metrics. We we were able to ingest these metrics into pre-built dashboards by leveraging the grafana/v1-alpha plugin, which scaffolds two Grafana dashboards to monitor Operator resource usage and performance. All we had to do was add these to our existing Grafana manifests and we were good to go!
