Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

WG etcd operator

This charter adheres to the conventions described in the Kubernetes Charter README and uses the Roles and Organization Management outlined in sig-governance .

Scope

The purpose of an etcd-operator is to operate automatically etcd clusters which run in the Kubernetes environment. It minimizes human intervention as much as possible. Note it excludes the case of etcd backing Kubernetes cluster; instead, etcd runs as POD as normal workloads.

In Scope

Collect requirements & use cases with a survey to better understand what users care about the most.
Prioritize the tasks based on feedback and create a roadmap.
Bootstrap a project “etcd-operator” owned by SIG etcd which resides in the etcd-io or kubernetes-sigs Github orgs.
- Review existing etcd operators to see if any could be forked or referenced to advance the project.
Discuss and design the core reconciliation workflow, and potentially provide a proof of concept (PoC).
Figure out how to get resource for following dev/test, i.e. AWS S3.

Out of scope

Manage etcd clusters running within non-Kubernetes environments.
Manage etcd clusters which are used as the storage backend of a host (non-nested) kube-apiserver.
