Integrate odo with Application and/or Component CRD

[cmoulliard]

[kind/Feature]

Goal : Integrate odo with the k8s Application and/or Component CRD
why :

• Reduce development/maintenance costs of odo by delegating responsibilities to maintain k8s resources of an application on the platform using CRD and operator
• Propose a common approach for all the DevTools to generate resources on the cloud Platform using Application/Component CRD
• Simplify migration of existing application when images + CVE should be patched, when new or additional features should be installed (e.g istio 1.1, Prometheus, EFK, ...)
• Delegate complex logic to be part/handled by k8s operator to manage Application status (update) when related resources are created/updated. That will let us to aggregate the status for the different resources created/application or component
• Support different installation or build strategies : inner, outerloop, knative build/pipelines
