The Operator Framework is an open source toolkit to manage Kubernetes native applications,
called Operators, in an effective, automated, and scalable way. The goal of an Operator
is to put operational knowledge into software. Previously this knowledge only resided
in the minds of administrators, various combinations of shell scripts or automation
software like Ansible. It was outside of your Kubernetes cluster and hard to integrate.
With Operators, CoreOS changed that.
