Abstract: The disclosure provides a method for migrating containerized workloads across different container orchestration platform offerings. The method generally includes receiving a migration specification for the workloads identifying at least a source cluster and a destination cluster, wherein the source and destination clusters are provisioned via different container orchestration platform offerings; obtaining a current state of the workloads running on the source cluster based on objects created for the source cluster, wherein the objects comprise a first object supported by the first orchestration platform offering of the source cluster and not the second orchestration platform offering of the destination cluster; applying mutation logic to convert the first object to a second object supported by the second orchestration platform offering of the destination cluster; storing one or more images associated with the containerized workloads on the destination cluster; and configuring the workloads at the destination cluster using the second object.

Abstract: Disclosed are various examples of control plane lifecycle management using data processing unit (DPU) devices. In some examples, a passthrough between a control plane virtual machine and a data processing unit (DPU) is enabled using a DPU management hypervisor executed by a DPU device. The DPU device is installed to the host device. The DPU device receives a control plane update command with instructions to update a control plane that includes the control plane virtual machine. The control plane update command is performed. Control plane data for the update is transmitted through the passthrough.
