Kubernetes API server provides a standardized extension layer, called CustomResourceDefinitions (CRDs). This is a go-to contract, used to implement a controller with added functionality. There are some standard libraries, like controller-runtime and kubebuilder, written in Go, built to integrate with it natively. But what about other languages, like Rust? How would a controller look like written in Rust? Why would you want to consider writing one? What benefits or downsides this approach might have? And how can a Rust controller still benefit from an established Go ecosystem? We will explore these topics, compare implementations and share experience over other projects using Rust within kubernetes.
