Large Crossplane providers install hundreds of CRDs consuming significant API server resources, even when users only need a few resource types. The new alpha ManagedResourceDefinition (MRD) and ManagedResourceActivationPolicy (MRAP) features in Crossplane v2.0+ solve this by enabling selective activation of provider resources, but lack user-facing documentation. This change adds complete documentation covering both concepts and practical implementation. The MRD concepts page explains the CRD scaling problem and selective activation approach. The MRAP concepts page details pattern-based activation strategies and multiple policy coordination. Two how-to guides provide end-to-end workflows: one for users wanting to reduce CRD overhead through selective activation, and another for provider developers implementing safe-start capability. The user guide was tested with simulated MRDs to verify the activation workflow and troubleshooting steps. Signed-off-by: Nic Cope <nicc@rk0n.org> |
