Operator long-term strategy --------------------------- Key: WFWIP-198 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFWIP-198 Project: WildFly WIP Issue Type: Bug Components: OpenShift Reporter: Martin Choma Assignee: Jeff Mesnil Priority: Blocker Facts: # Operator creates and manges internaly several kubernetes objects; StatefulSet, Pod, Service, Routes. By rough estimation these kubernetes objects expose approximately 50 options[2]. Operator now expose approximately 10 options [1]. # EAP7-1192 is currently designed in way operator is integral part of solution. You can not turn off operator to EAP7-1192 properly work. # User cant touch internal Kubernetes objects. Operator manages them and can overwrite changes anytime. So given these facts question is what is long-term strategy with Operator? # Operator will provide all options of internal objects. Everything I am able to configure directly with Kubernetes objects I will be able to configure with Operator # Operator will expose just most useful options. If user wants to make something special he has to "turn off" operator and to be on his own. (Loosing transaction support provided by EAP7-1192) # Operator will expose just most useful options. If user wants to make something special he can and Operator won't overwritten his changes. (I dont know if it is feasible?)
