Built on Open Source Software: The DigitalOcean Kubernetes control plane is built with Cluster API for better operability and reliability. DigitalOcean contributes to Open Source Software (OSS) projects like the Cluster API provider DigitalOcean that you can use to provision DigitalOcean Kubernetes clusters. As a member of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) all DigitalOcean Kubernetes clusters are certified by the CNCF allowing migration to and from our platform.
To create the new DigitalOcean Kubernetes control plane we leveraged the latest cloud-native and open source technologies including the ClusterAPI for API-based cluster management. We containerized the control plane components and used Kubernetes to manage them, a concept referred to as Kubeception. Because containers are so lightweight, we can spin up new control planes faster than ever. See below for diagrams outlining how the new control plane differs from the legacy control plane.
