Architecture Overview

CPS1 is deployed on your Kubernetes cluster to transparently handle all necessary operations that support its features.

A CPS1 instance has three main components: the Web Console, the Server, and the Gateway.

The Web Console is used by developers and administrators for managing, Workspaces, Resources, Templates and Environments.

The Gateway is responsible for providing conectivity to running applications into a Workspace and SSH access.

The Server has two services. The first is the API Server that has the Web Console as its client. The second is an Kubernetes Operator that performs operations and listens for events on the cluster's Control Plane to manage Envinroments lifecycle.

CPS1 makes Kubernetes invisible, providing production-like environments and a seamless cloud-based developer experience. The Kubernetes Operator integrates into the cluster's Control Plane, continuously monitoring the actual state against the desired state and reconciling if configuration drift occurs.

The CPS1 Kubernetes Operator extends Kubernetes by combining Custom Resource Definitions, Pods, Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps and many other funcionalities to create development environment Workspaces.
