Research direction

Start by reading the cloud controller manager's current single-silo configuration, API endpoint handling, and credential handling. Map how nodes are associated with a silo and define the multi-rack behavior; done means one Kubernetes cluster can manage nodes across multiple Oxide silos with the required endpoints and credentials.

Description

Enhancement Kubernetes Cloud Controller Manager (CCM)

The cloud controller manager currently supports a single Oxide silo, requiring all Kubernetes cluster nodes to reside in the same silo with a single API endpoint and credential set. This limits cluster topologies and prevents deployments that span multiple silos or racks.

This work adds support for multiple Oxide silos, allowing a single Kubernetes cluster to manage nodes across different silos — including silos on different racks. This aligns the CCM with how Oxide customers operating multi-rack environments will need to deploy Kubernetes.
