As businesses in India embrace the cloud, a critical question looms: Where does your data really live, and who controls it? In 2025 alone, India’s cloud market is projected to reach US$ 21.4 billion, with further growth in 2030 expected to reach US$ 52.2 billion. This helps to underscore the rapidly expanding scale and strategic importance of cloud infrastructure in the country. But with this growth comes growing concern: Is your data secure, compliant, and under your control within Indian borders?

Previously, we showed you how to securely pull Docker images from Cloudsmith to Kubernetes using OIDC with a CronJob-based approach. We concluded the post discussing credential provider plugins from Kubernetes 1.20 and an enhancement in Kubernetes 1.33 that offers a new approach for external registries like Cloudsmith. We have now built a credential provider that takes advantage of this new capability. This article explores what this means for the future of pulling images from Cloudsmith on Kubernetes.
