Abstract

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for disaster resilience of applications managed by Kubernetes operators. An embodiment operates by creating an orchestration and worker cluster, where the worker cluster is coupled to the orchestration cluster by a proxy server. Custom resources are deployed to the orchestration cluster and custom resource controllers are deployed to the worker cluster. The proxy server federates these custom resources between the orchestration cluster and the worker cluster. During disasters, the worker cluster is recreated and reconciled to prevent loss of the federated cluster.
