The config-server is a Kubernetes-based Operator and comprises of several controllers:
- Schema Controller: Manages the lifecycle of schemas using Schema Custom Resources (CR).
- Discovery Controller: Manages the lifecycle of targets through DiscoveryRule CR, discovering devices/NF(s)
- Target Controller: Manages the lifecycle of Target DataStores using Target CR.
- Config API Server: Manages the lifecycle of Config resources.
- Utilizes its storage backend (not etcd).
- Interacts declaratively with the data-server through Intent transactions.
- Implements validation checks, rejecting configurations that fail validation.
Config-server is part of Schema Driven Configuration (SDC)
The paradigm of schema-driven API approaches is gaining increasing popularity as it facilitates programmatic interaction with systems by both machines and humans. While OpenAPI schema stands out as a widely embraced system, there are other notable schema approaches like YANG, among others. This project endeavors to empower users with a declarative and idempotent method for seamless interaction with API systems, providing a robust foundation for effective system configuration."
