Superseded by velodb/fdb-kubernetes-operator#1. The FDB controller, Monitor RBAC, client patch, cluster profiles and guide are maintained in the VeloDB FDB Operator repository with VeloDB image defaults. Companion documentation is updated in apache/doris-website#4579 and selectdb/selectdb-docs#146.

---

Provide a consistent FoundationDB installation path using Operator v2.35.0 and the unified Monitor 7.3.69 image. Existing instructions mix floating CRDs, older controller deployments and split-image examples.

• Download CRDs from velodb/fdb-kubernetes-operator at tag v2.35.0, directory config/crd/bases; record the upstream commit and SHA-256 checksums in UPSTREAM.md.
• Add a customized controller deployment, namespace-scoped Monitor RBAC and an optional amd64 FDB 7.1 client patch.
• Add single/double database profiles with explicit CPU, memory, PVCs, volume permissions, fault domains and DNS routing.
• Document resource totals, client compatibility, readiness/reconciliation checks and shared-FDB retention. These assets are for fresh installations; existing legacy installation paths remain separate.

Validation: YAML parsing, cluster-profile CRD schema validation, guide shell syntax and git diff --check passed. The three mirrored CRDs match the Manager bundled definitions byte-for-byte. Live-cluster deployment and workload/failure testing were not performed.
