Interesting! Is that a single K8 control plane across one cluster? We've gone with fully isolated clusters across 2 data centers to protect against a network isolation incident between them causing a split brain/borking etcd.

Yes the control plane is only in one of the data centers. The other only runs admin services like offsite backups, our development infra (gitlab, etc) and CI/CD.

We could definitely do two clusters and probably should, but the secondary data center has few services that it wasn’t really worth the extra work.

Oh cool, interesting. Thanks for the overview
