# NL-CPS: Reinforcement Learning-Based Kubernetes Control Plane Placement in Multi-Region Clusters

## Overview
The placement of Kubernetes control-plane nodes is critical to ensuring cluster reliability, scalability, and performance, and therefore represents a significant deployment challenge in heterogeneous, multi-region environments. Existing initialisation procedures typically select control-plane hosts arbitrarily, without considering node resource capacity or network topology, often leading to suboptimal cluster performance and reduced resilience.
