Getting Started with Crossplane Compositions

Download to learn how to use Crossplane to expose services as higher-level abstraction.

Compositions unlock the ability to create an effective Internal Developer Platform (IDP).

Continue your journey from learning about Providers and Managed Resources to understanding Crossplane compositions. These enable the ability to define what something is, enabling platform engineers to codify their expertise and expose services at higher-level abstractions. 

Authored by Crossplane expert Viktor Farcic, this guide is tailored for beginners eager to learn how to leverage Crossplane’s powerful composition features by:

  • Comprehensive Coverage: Understand how to create and manage composite resources, extending Kubernetes capabilities with Crossplane.
  • Build Production-Ready Solutions: Learn how to abstract low-level resources into higher-level services that can be easily consumed by your team.
  • Hands-On Examples: Dive into real-world scenarios and hands-on examples that simplify complex concepts.

This is part 2 of a 3 part series. Find part 1 here, and part 3 here.
