# Non-Functional Delta: 013-radius-kubernetes-platform

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://deploy-preview-472--lucky-concha-f3599f.netlify.app/llms.txt).

Parent state: `012-platform-convergence-c3`

This state layers Radius platform abstractions on top of the Kubernetes baseline from state `012`.

## Runtime / Operations

*   Runtime substrate remains Kubernetes.
*   Deployment model shifts to Radius application/resource definitions.
*   Operator workflow targets Radius-first deployment primitives.

## Security / Compliance

*   No authn/authz model change is required in this state by default.
*   Platform policy controls can be attached through Radius environment/application boundaries.

## Performance / Scalability

*   Scaling behavior remains Kubernetes-native unless overridden through Radius-managed policy.
*   No baseline performance contract changes are introduced.

## Reliability / Observability

*   Radius resource model adds stronger platform-level dependency visibility.
*   Application health/readiness behavior remains inherited from Kubernetes state `012`.
*   Inherited observability entrypoints from state `012` remain required:
    *   `http://localhost:8080/grafana`
    *   `http://localhost:8080/prometheus`
