Garage Kubernetes Operator

Garage Kubernetes Operator is a tool for running Garage—a distributed, self-hosted object storage system—as a Kubernetes-native service. It manages cluster lifecycle, storage layout, gateways, buckets, and credentials through custom resources. The operator handles persistent-identity gateways, node-local storage pools, and multi-cluster federation, with safety features including admission webhooks, leader election, and Prometheus integration.

Designed for operators managing Kubernetes clusters, it provides declarative bucket and S3 key provisioning, quota management, and lifecycle rules. The project was built using Claude Code according to build evidence in the repository.
