Manage Cruise Control rebalance plans from the Dashboard

Teams operating Strimzi Kafka clusters needed a clearer way to inspect, approve, follow, and stop balancing work without losing track of the plan’s state.

Artie now presents Cruise Control rebalance plans with proposal summaries in Slack, plan and progress details in the Dashboard, and controls to approve, reject, or stop a plan. The cluster pages and activity feed show rebalance status, while the system ensures that only the first approval decision applies.

This is for teams using Artie-managed Strimzi Kafka clusters that want a visible approval workflow for cluster rebalances.

Why this matters

• Review rebalance proposals with their impact summarized in Slack
• Track plan state and progress from the Dashboard
• Approve, reject, or stop a rebalance with a single decision applied
