We are going to speak about CRDs, and discuss considering them as higher level entities that we normally consider them.

CRDs normally are kind of a byproduct of an operator. But in reality, they can be considered as the user-facing API of the operator surface. And as such, we would like to introduce conversations about even standardizing some of them, or creating "specifications" out of some CRDs.

Take this for example: there are some CRDs that could be, potentially, common across multiple operators. Think of a CRD to represent an S3 (or any other storage object) bucket. For operators that store data in object stores, each and every one of them are creating their own versions. But shouldn't we have some "standardized" `ObjectStorage` CRD, without a controller, that all could use?

We'll be joined by John Sanda of DataStax who works on the K8ssandra project, Alvaro Hernandez who is the CEO of Ongres and Postgres superhero, and Eyar Zilberman Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at Datree.
