Cluster API is a Kubernetes sub-project that uses controllers and built-in features of Kubernetes to manage Kubernetes clusters. The project aims to make managing Kubernetes clusters easier and is not prioritizing one cloud or infrastructure over another. The team is working on optimizing bootstrap times and exploring ways to downsize the footprint of Cluster API in limited environments.
