Getting Started with Crossplane Providers and Managed Resources

Download this paper to learn how to start extending Crossplane capabilities with ease.

Break Crossplane down into simple concepts. 

Take an introduction and deep dive into Crossplane providers and managed resources to explore how Crossplane providers work and how they extend Kubernetes capabilities with custom resource definitions (CRDs) and controllers. 

Author and Crossplane expert Viktor Farcic will help you learn about:

  • Exploring Providers: Detailed look into Crossplane providers, how to install them, and manage resources.
  • Managing Real Resources: Learn to create and manage real cloud resources such as VMs on your preferred hyperscaler (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud).
  • Discovering Hands-On Examples: Practical examples of managing resources in AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud using Crossplane.

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