by At Kubermatic, we have been helping our customers deliver Kubernetes clusters and other cloud-native solutions since before they were buzzwords. We helped customers build clusters using Ansible, Terraform, and a variety of other non-cloud-native tools...and we helped them rebuild the clusters when we ran into the limits of these tools.

This model has actually been proven out by multiple organizations including Alibaba who uses it to manage tens of thousands of clusters.

The worker nodes of the user cluster are deployed by machine-controller which implements Cluster API to bring declarative creation, configuration, and management to worker nodes.
