Not a redis guy, but I worked on MySQL for quite a long time. the interesting part in KubeBlocks, in my point of view, is they wrap engine-specific differences in 'Addon' . And I checked their impl for MySQL Addon.
I like their idea on hwo to modeling datebase topologies and behaviors. for instence, parameter configurations. seems they have tuned parameters for MySQL replication clusters (e.g. they render parameters w.r.t resources)
I like the message it conveyed 'No need to be a K8s professional'. That is exactly how I feel after creating a mysql cluster smoothly. I tried oracle mysql opertor months earlier, but failed to install it on AWS EKS without knowing why.
And their command line `kbcli` did impressed me, very easy to use. kbcli helps me create various clusters in several minutes. I have been working on mysql developing for more than five years, and I guess the ApeCloud team are very experienced in operating at least mysql.
Seems Kubeblocks provids some parameters templates based on their knowledge on databases. To some extent, it will improve performance. Of course, I don't think users will be totally freed from `database tuning`, which is too complex a topic.
