Why keep your cluster alive when you’re not using it? Let it bite the dust, every night, and that’s just fine. With Crossplane and kube-green, you can unlock ephemeral environments that spin up when you code and shut down when you rest. Imagine a development setup that dynamically provisions complex infrastructure for testing, then automatically scales down during off-hours – like nights and weekends.

In this talk, we’ll show you how Platform Engineering can orchestrate this smart, on-demand model, so developers can focus on building applications, not babysitting clusters. You’ll see the integration in action, explore the impact on cost, efficiency, and sustainability, and discover how to shift from static uptime to dynamic, eco-friendly infrastructure. Save money, reduce emissions, and let your clusters rest – because we will rock you, but not all night long.
