Kubernetes Controllers, Custom Controllers and Operators explained with use cases

In this video we looked into what exactly are Kubernetes controllers, Custom Controllers and Operators in Kubernetes.
We actually started with the controllers that are running as part of Controller manger and then defined the custom controller.
A part from that we also looked into the use cases of Operators and then defined them.
The use case that we looked into was managing a distributed database on top of Kubernetes, we discussed about the problems that database administrators will encounter if they want to add another node on the DB cluster or if in case they have to change the leader node.
