## the "State of Statefulness"
on Kubernetes:
* stateless is generally solved
* stateful workloads are still nontrivial
</section>
<section data-markdown>
### Operators Are&hellip;
</section>
<section data-markdown>
# WHAT?
* Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs)
* Custom Controller (domain expertise) -> { spec, status }
</section>
<section>
<h2>CRDs</h2>
<pre><code contenteditable>kind: ProductionReadyDatabase
apiVersion: database.example.com/v1alpha1
metadata:
name: my-production-ready-database
spec:
clusterSize: 3
readReplicas: 2
version: v4.0.1
[...]</code></pre>
</section>
<section>
<h2>CR</h2>
<pre><code contenteditable>kind: EtcdCluster
apiVersion: etcd.database.coreos.com/v1beta2
metadata:
name: example-etcd-cluster
spec:
size: 3
version: "3.1.0"</code></pre>
</section>
<section>
<h2>Controllers</h2>
<ul>
<li>ReplicaSet</li>
<li>https://github.com/coreos/rollback-controller</li>
</ul>

## Imperative
vs
## Declarative
</section>
<section data-markdown>
Imperative:
> "Kubernetes, turn left at the next stop, then turn right and go 3 more blocks, park in the empty spot"
Declarative:
> "Kubernetes, take me home!"

<h3>Requirements from clients</h3>

> Operators allow experts to pave over domain-specific gaps in functionality; freeing up developers to focus on their %dayjob%
</section><section data-markdown>
# WHY NOT?
* security
* consistency
* no need for a custom control interface?
* no need to extend the cluster?
* namespacing implications?
</section>
<section>
<h1>WHY?</h1>
<ul>
<li class='fragment'>security</li>
<li class='fragment'>consistency</li>
<li class='fragment'>ability to redistribute a clean and reliable developer interface</li>
<li class='fragment'>ability to redistribute custom platform logic </li>
<li class='fragment'>community (shared support via TSANet)</li>
<li class='fragment'>updates (updates via OLM)</li>
</ul>

<section data-markdown>
### Productivity
Productivity requires:
* reproducibility (service availability)
* observability (logs, metrics, traces)
* using the right tool for the job
</section><section data-markdown>
### Productivity
Production-like environments provide the best reproducibility, observability
1. Kubernetes provides a reproducible platform for cloud-native solutions
2. OpenShift provides a PaaS-like environment whith active management for cloud-native solutions (with maintainers, patch streams)
3. Portable app code from the neck up
