Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the world of Kubernetes where containers run free
Strimzi brings Apache Kafka with operators three
The Cluster Operator takes the leading role
Managing Kafka, ZooKeeper, keeping systems whole
Connect and MirrorMaker, Bridge components too
Reconciliation loops make everything run smooth

[Chorus]
Cluster manages all, Entity splits in two
Topic Operator waits, User Operator too
C-E-T-U, operators four
Reconcile and lead elect, that's what they're for
Strimzi operators working through the night
Keeping Kafka running, everything's alright

[Verse 2]
Entity Operator holds a special place
Contains two operators in one single space
Topic Operator watches KafkaTopic CRDs
Creates and updates topics with such expertise
While User Operator handles KafkaUser calls
Managing ACLs and permissions for all

[Chorus]
Cluster manages all, Entity splits in two
Topic Operator waits, User Operator too
C-E-T-U, operators four
Reconcile and lead elect, that's what they're for
Strimzi operators working through the night
Keeping Kafka running, everything's alright

[Bridge]
Leader election keeps the order right
Only one operator leads the fight
Reconciliation loops keep checking state
Desired meets actual, never too late
When custom resources change their form
Operators respond and transform

[Verse 3]
From YAML declarations to running pods
These operators work like digital gods
Cluster Operator stands at the top
Entity holds two that never stop
Topic and User working side by side
In Kubernetes where Kafka can reside

[Chorus]
Cluster manages all, Entity splits in two
Topic Operator waits, User Operator too
C-E-T-U, operators four
Reconcile and lead elect, that's what they're for
Strimzi operators working through the night
Keeping Kafka running, everything's alright

[Outro]
Four operators strong in Strimzi's way
Managing Kafka every single day
