Feature Overview
Allow cloud bursting from a OpenShift cluster on the bare metal platform to the AWS cloud.
Goals
As an infrastructure owner of OpenShift I need to expand my OpenShift cluster on the bare metal platform on-premise to the AWS cloud by adding OpenShift workers in AWS to run extra workloads.
As an infrastructure owner of OpenShift I need an automated way of cloud bursting from my bare metal, on-premise clusters, into AWS cloud that adds OpenShift workers in AWS to run extra workloads
Why is it important
Organizations using OpenShift run workloads that can have load spikes and heavy load fluctuations and require temporary additional compute for them. Customers are requesting the ability to expand their clusters to the cloud when needed while having their main clusters on premise in bare metal nodes. The flexibility of cloud bursting allows customers to run a hybrid cloud that optimizes their infrastructure costs by having an on-prem bare metal cluster sized for the most common workload while being prepared for load spikes.
Requirements
| Requirement | Notes | isMvp? |
