In 2014, namespaces were added to Kubernetes. Many tried to implement multi-tenancy on-top, with limited success. What if namespaces are just the wrong tool, and we better invest into cluster-like isolation called workspaces, built deeply into the apiserver. The kcp project explors Kubernetes - with logical cluster support to implement workspaces - with ability to scale horizontally via sharding, towards 1,000,000 clusters - with novel API service models disrupting CRDs. In contrast to other projects like vcluster or OpenClusterManager, kcp challenges years old decisions in Kubernetes by going deep into API-Machinery and apiserver. Strategically, we reduce the size of clusters to those of namespaces, and by that open up the space between workspaces for innovation, while within a workspace kcp is just Kubernetes. Outline: 1. from namespaces to workspaces 2. APIExport and APIBindings, identity based security 3. scaling up kcp to 1,000,000 workspaces.
