Abstract
In an example embodiment, a solution is provided for a container-orchestration service that allows a custom resource to reflect an entire software application while still splitting the actual work out into independent microservices. Specifically, the concepts of an extendable controller and controller extensions are introduced. An extendable controller defines an extendable custom resource. This custom resource is still the main resource describing the entire application, but does so in a way that extensions are referenced that can be defined in their own resources (called extension resources). The extendable controller itself is surrounded by extension controllers, which are responsible for certain aspects of the system that need to be considered in atomic transactions, such as high-availability configuration or scale-out.
