The Open Liberty Operator can be used to deploy and manage applications running on Open Liberty into OKD or OpenShift clusters. You can also perform Day-2 operations such as gathering traces and dumps using the operator.

Use the instructions for one of the releases to directly install this Operator into a Kubernetes cluster.
The architecture of the Open Liberty Operator follows the basic controller pattern: the Operator container with the controller is deployed into a Pod and listens for incoming resources with Kind: OpenLibertyApplication.
In addition, Open Liberty Operator makes it easy to perform Day-2 operations on an instance of Open Liberty server running inside a Pod:
- Gather server traces using resource Kind: OpenLibertyTrace
- Generate server dumps using resource Kind: OpenLibertyDump
