The Cloud-Native Framework for Platform Engineering

Crossplane is an open-source, cloud-native framework built on Kubernetes that enables platform engineering teams to build control planes. It allows organizations to create their own APIs and services, extend Kubernetes to manage resources anywhere, and assemble platforms faster using a library of components. Crossplane helps encapsulate policies and permissions behind custom APIs, enabling self-service for customers without requiring infrastructure expertise. It's designed to be extensible, allowing users to create providers and configurations that orchestrate new types of applications and infrastructure. By putting users in control, Crossplane facilitates the design of tailored control planes that meet unique orchestration needs, leveraging Kubernetes' reliability and security features.

Crossplane uses CRDs to define new APIs that can manage any type of resource, enabling users to create custom abstractions over underlying infrastructure.
Composition allows users to define how different resources are composed together to create higher-level abstractions, simplifying the deployment of complex applications.
Providers extend Crossplane's capabilities to manage resources from different cloud providers and services, allowing users to create multi-cloud or hybrid cloud platforms.
Crossplane allows defining the control plane itself as code, enabling version control, automated deployments, and easier management of the platform.
Crossplane's ability to manage resources across multiple cloud providers from a single control plane allows for hybrid and multi-cloud deployments.
Crossplane enables the definition and enforcement of policies to ensure compliance and security across the managed infrastructure.
By defining custom APIs, Crossplane enables developers to provision and manage infrastructure resources on their own, without requiring manual intervention from operations teams.
