In an example, a method includes processing, by an application programming interface (API) server implemented by a configuration node of a network controller for a software-defined networking (SDN) architecture system, requests for operations on native resources of a container orchestration system; processing, by a custom API server implemented by the configuration node, requests for operations on custom resources for SDN architecture configuration, wherein each of the custom resources for SDN architecture configuration corresponds to a type of configuration object in the SDN architecture system; detecting, by a control node of the network controller, an event on an instance of a first custom resource of the custom resources; and by the control node, in response to detecting the event on the instance of the first custom resource, obtaining configuration data for the instance of the first custom resource and configuring a corresponding instance of a configuration object in the SDN architecture.

Cloud native software-defined network architecture

In general, techniques are described for a creating a virtual network router within a software defined network (SDN) architecture. A network controller for the SDN architecture system may include processing circuitry that is configured to execute a configuration node and a control node. The configuration node may process a request by which to create a virtual network router (VNR), where the virtual network router may cause the network controller to interconnect a first virtual network (VN) and a second VN. The VNR may represent a logical abstraction of one or more policies that cause import and/or export of routing information between the first VN and the second VN. The control node configures the first VN and the second VN according to the one or more policies to enable the import and/or the export of routing information between the first VN and the second VN via the VNR.
