Announcing vcluster Plugins and the vcluster SDK

  vCluster - Create fully functional virtual Kubernetes clusters - Each vcluster runs inside a namespace of the underlying k8s cluster. It's cheaper than creating separate full-blown clusters and it offers better multi-tenancy and isolation than regular namespaces.

  

vcluster is an open source project that allows users to create and run virtual Kubernetes clusters inside of a shared cluster. A virtual cluster runs inside a namespace of the shared host cluster, but it appears to the user as a standalone, dedicated cluster. The Loft Labs team released the initial version of vcluster almost one year ago. Since then, a lot of momentum has built around the project, and we’ve received a lot of helpful feedback from users.

So in version 0.6.0 of vcluster, we’ve added the ability for users to write vcluster plugins using the new vcluster SDK. vcluster plugins are written in Go, and they can customize vcluster in many ways. There are currently three examples in the GitHub repo:
