Resource Booking Operator
Cloud resource scheduling using Kubernetes custom resources
- Easily start AWS resources such as EC2 instances and databases when you need them, then stop them automatically to reduce cost.
- You don't use your databases at night? Create a schedule to stop them overnight, and start them in the morning.
- You need your BI instance only when the big reporting is due? Start it only on demand, make sure it is off when not needed.
- Easily accessible directly from your Kubernetes control plane, leveraging the extensibility of the Kubernetes API.
Automatically start and stop cloud resources by using the custom Booking type in your Kubernetes cluster.
Reduce cloud operating costs by using on-demand scheduling of resources. Stop resources automatically when they are no longer required.
Extensible, built on top of Kubernetes. Open Source and welcoming contributions on cloud providers and new resource types.
Resource monitor
Continuously scans the given type of resources and manages the resources on the cluster based on the tracked cloud instances. When new instances are tagged, they will instantly appear as a resource.
Resource
A group of instances that share a common tag name. Resources describe the status of the instances they represent, and can also control their state depending on the existence of a booking that reserves them.
Booking
Used to reserve resources, bookings trigger a state change on the resource they’ve scheduled. They have a start and end time based on which the resource should start or stop the cloud instances.
