Lab Overview

This hands-on lab teaches you to migrate from Crossplane v1.x patterns to v2.0 by converting Claims to namespaced XRs and implementing new operational workflows.

You'll learn to:

  • Convert v1.x DatabaseClaim patterns to v2.0 namespaced Composite Resources
  • Configure XRDs for namespace-scoped resource isolation and multi-tenancy
  • Implement operational workflows using CronOperation for automated backups
  • Design event-driven automation with WatchOperation for resource monitoring
  • Compose non-infrastructure Kubernetes resources in v2.0 compositions
  • Test advanced v2.0 composition patterns with complete application platform stacks

This lab demonstrates real-world migration patterns and prepares you for advanced Crossplane v2.0 platform management.

Prerequisites

Completion of Crossplane 101 sections 1-7 (Claims, XRDs, Compositions)
