OpenControlPlane

OpenControlPlane is a managed Infrastructure-as-Data orchestration layer, designed to streamline and automate the management of cloud resources and corresponding services using the Kubernetes Resource Model.

• Full Cloud Landscape Orchestration: Equips teams with everything needed to orchestrate their cloud landscapes — from application to account and infrastructure management — using the control plane pattern.
• Declarative Resource API: All resources in the cloud-edge continuum are accessible and managed via a declarative API based on the Kubernetes Resource Model, with corresponding controllers and operators.
• Centralized Infra-as-Data Capabilities: Enables organizations to centrally offer Infrastructure-as-Data capabilities, leveraging open-source providers like Crossplane, Flux, External Secrets Operator, and OCM.
• GitOps at the Edge: Together with declarative deployment orchestrators, consumers implement automated, GitOps-driven deployment workflows at the edges.
• Release Train Subscription: Consumers subscribe to a product release-train from software producers, enabling continuous and controlled delivery across distributed environments.
• Custom Platform Builder: Allows larger organizations to pre-configure control planes tailored to their needs and grow their own internal developer platform.
• Managed Control Planes as a Service: Allows any company to offer managed control planes to their engineers, reducing platform complexity for individual teams.
