Status: IN
Both hosted control planes and edge/SNO deployments require fundamentally different operational models from standard HA clusters: HCP separates control and data planes across clusters with distinct APIs (NodePool, HyperShift), while edge uses ZTP/TALM fleet management with reduced capability profiles — neither follows the standard MachineSet/MHC/in-cluster-control-plane pattern.
depth-3 — non-standard topologies share the property of diverging from the default operational model
