      OpenKruise provides Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) for
      advanced workload management. CloneSet offers efficient rolling updates
      with partition control, Advanced StatefulSet supports in-place container
      updates, Advanced DaemonSet provides surge and partitioned updates,
      SidecarSet manages sidecar containers across pods, BroadcastJob runs
      tasks on all nodes, and ImagePullJob pre-pulls images. Each controller
      extends standard Kubernetes capabilities with fine-grained deployment
      control through the apps.kruise.io/v1alpha1 and v1beta1 API groups.
