- Customers defining Kubernetes application indicate that maintainability of Kubernetes manifests is challenging; CDK8s+ aims to lower the entry barrier and improve maintainability of Kubernetes manifests by offering a hand crafted construct for each core Kubernetes object, exposing a richer API with reduced complexity.
- With this launch, CDK8s+ is now generally available and stable for use.
- This means that the API will remain unchanged and fully supported (no breaking changes), at least until the next major version.
- CDK8s+ is vended as a separate library for each Kubernetes spec version, all those libraries are now generally available and stable to use.
- Customers also want to validate their manifest by applying either community or organizational policies. CDK8s now supports integration with third-party tools that facilitate this, and can perform validation as part of the synthesis process. This supports manifests produced by CDK8s adhering to the necessary policies.
