第10章 Operators

You can use Operators with MicroShift to create applications that monitor the running services in your cluster. Operators can manage applications and their resources, such as deploying a database or message bus. As customized software running inside your cluster, Operators can be used to implement and automate common operations.

Operators offer a more localized configuration experience and integrate with Kubernetes APIs and CLI tools such as kubectl and oc. Operators are designed specifically for your applications. Operators enable you to configure components instead of modifying a global configuration file.

MicroShift applications are generally expected to be deployed in static environments. However, Operators are available if helpful in your use case. To determine the compatibility of an Operator with MicroShift, check the Operator documentation.
