The RabbitMQ Cluster Kubernetes Operator is a Kubernetes-native tool specifically designed to simplify the deployment, management, and operation of RabbitMQ clusters within a Kubernetes environment. It utilizes Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) to define and manage various RabbitMQ resources, including clusters, users, permissions, and virtual hosts.

• **Kubernetes Custom Resources:** Employs familiar Kubernetes manifests to configure and deploy RabbitMQ clusters.
• **Simplified Deployment Configuration:** Essential RabbitMQ configurations like versions, node types, storage, and security settings are defined directly within Kubernetes resources.
• **Automated Cluster Management:** Facilitates the creation, scaling, upgrading, and management of RabbitMQ clusters, including automated failover and recovery.
• **High Availability:** Ensures high availability by managing multiple RabbitMQ nodes within a cluster.
• **Security:** Enforces security measures such as TLS encryption, authentication, and authorization to protect data.
• **Monitoring and Management:** Integrates with the RabbitMQ Management plugin to provide insights into cluster health and performance.

• **Streamlined RabbitMQ Deployment:** Simplifies the process of setting up and managing RabbitMQ in Kubernetes.
• **Scalability:** Effortlessly scales RabbitMQ clusters to accommodate growing messaging needs.
• **High Availability:** Configures RabbitMQ clusters for high availability, ensuring message durability and accessibility.
• **Open Source:** The RabbitMQ Cluster Kubernetes Operator is an open-source project under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.

• **Installation:** Install the RabbitMQ Cluster Kubernetes Operator using Helm or by directly applying the necessary manifests to your Kubernetes cluster.
• **Configuration:** Define RabbitMQ clusters, users, permissions, and other related resources using Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs).
• **Management:** The RabbitMQ Cluster Kubernetes Operator will automatically deploy and manage your RabbitMQ clusters based on your configurations.
