- Adding more managed clusters, which increases the time to collect status from all clusters

Based on performance testing and community feedback, recommended limits include:
497+
- Maximum 3000 managed clusters per hub cluster (based on performance testing results)
498+
- Maximum 100 ManifestWorks per managed cluster to avoid resource exhaustion
499+
- Hub cluster minimum requirements: 4 CPU cores, 8GB RAM for production workloads
500+
- Network bandwidth: 10Mbps minimum per 100 managed clusters for status reporting
501+
These limits were obtained through the performance testing framework and real-world production deployments by adopters.

* Describe which resilience pattern the project uses and how, including the circuit breaker pattern.
490504

491-
TBD
505+
OCM implements several resilience patterns:
506+
- **Leader Election**: Hub controllers use leader election to ensure high availability and prevent split-brain scenarios
507+
- **Retry with Exponential Backoff**: Failed operations are retried with increasing delays to handle transient failures
508+
- **Graceful Degradation**: When hub cluster is unreachable, managed clusters continue running existing workloads
509+
- **Health Checks and Heartbeating**: Klusterlet agents regularly report health status and automatically reconnect on failures
510+
- **Certificate Auto-Rotation**: Automatic certificate renewal prevents authentication failures
511+
- **Pull-based Architecture**: Eliminates dependency on hub-to-spoke connectivity, improving resilience to network partitions

557+
- **ManifestWork Success Rate**: 99.5% of ManifestWork deployments should succeed within 5 minutes

* Describe the project’s dependency lifecycle policy.
571+
572+
OCM depends on the following cluster services:
573+
- **Kubernetes API Server**: Core dependency for all OCM operations and CRD storage
574+
- **etcd**: Stores all OCM custom resources and cluster state information
575+
- **kube-controller-manager**: Required for leader election and resource management
576+
- **CoreDNS/kube-dns**: Name resolution for inter-component communication
577+
- **kubelet**: Manages OCM pods on cluster nodes
578+
579+
* Describe the project's dependency lifecycle policy.
580+
581+
OCM follows a conservative dependency lifecycle policy:
582+
- Kubernetes dependencies are updated to the latest stable version with each OCM release
583+
- Go dependencies are updated monthly via Dependabot automated PRs for security patches
584+
- Major dependency upgrades are planned during quarterly releases with backward compatibility testing
585+
- Legacy dependencies are deprecated with a minimum 2-release migration period
586+
- Critical security vulnerabilities in dependencies trigger immediate patch releases
587+
- All dependency changes require approval from project maintainers and CI validation
588+

* How does the project incorporate and consider source composition analysis as part of its development and security hygiene? Describe how this source composition analysis (SCA) is tracked.
590+
591+
OCM incorporates SCA through multiple automated tools and processes:
592+
- **GitHub Security Scanning**: Enabled for vulnerability detection in source code and dependencies
593+
- **Dependabot**: Automatically tracks dependency vulnerabilities and creates PRs for security updates
594+
- **SBOM Generation**: Creates Software Bill of Materials for all container images using SPDX format
595+
- **License Scanning**: Ensures all dependencies comply with project license requirements
596+
- **Supply Chain Security**: Uses Cosign and Sigstore for image signing and attestation
597+
- **Trivy Integration**: Scans container images for known CVEs in CI/CD pipeline
598+
- **Tracking**: SCA results are monitored via GitHub Security Dashboard and dependency update PRs

Known failure modes in OCM include:
615+
- **Hub Cluster Failure**: Complete hub unavailability causes loss of centralized management, but managed clusters continue running existing workloads
616+
- **Network Partitions**: Spoke clusters unable to reach hub lose management capabilities until connectivity is restored
617+
- **Certificate Expiration**: Failed certificate rotation can break hub-spoke communication requiring manual intervention
618+
- **etcd Corruption**: Hub cluster data loss requires backup restoration and managed cluster re-registration
619+
- **Resource Exhaustion**: Too many clusters or ManifestWorks can overwhelm hub resources causing performance degradation
620+
- **API Server Overload**: High API request volume can cause timeouts and failed operations

- **Addon Failures**: Individual addon crashes affect specific functionality but don't impact core cluster management
