The document discusses Cloud Native computing and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). It defines Cloud Native as a new paradigm for developing, deploying, and running applications using open source software like microservices, containers, and container orchestration. The CNCF is responsible for building sustainable ecosystems of Cloud Native software and serves as the home for many fastest-growing open source projects like Kubernetes, Prometheus, and Envoy. The CNCF landscape includes graduated, incubated, and sandbox projects and drives adoption of the Cloud Native paradigm.

1. Cloud Native & CNCF
Akash Agrawal | 07-09-2019

2. Agenda
● Cloud Native
● CNCF
● CNCF Landscape & Projects
● Cloud Native Value Propositions
● Serverless

3. Cloud Native
● Cloud Native is a new paradigm (or modern way) to develop, deploy & run
applications using open source software stack.
● Cloud Native Application Design revolves around 3 concepts:
○ Microservices
○ Containers
○ Container Orchestration
● This new paradigm fully exploit advantages of cloud computing model
(means you will focus on how applications are created & deployed, not
where)

4. Cloud Native Application Design
● Independent Application Components (Services)
● Distributed
● Scalable (dynamic)
● Fault Tolerant
● Microservices Design Patterns: Service Discovery etc.
● DevOps Friendly
● ...

5. CNCF (Cloud Native Computing Foundation)
● CNCF is responsible for building sustainable ecosystems of Cloud Native
Softwares
● CNCF serves as the vendor-neutral home for many of the fastest-growing
open source projects like Kubernetes, Prometheus & Envoy etc. (In Cloud
Native Space)
● CNCF is part of the nonprofit Linux Foundation.
● 30+ Projects under CNCF Umbrella

6. CNCF Landscape & Projects
● CNCF Landscape:
○ https://landscape.cncf.io/
● CNCF Projects Maturities:
○ Graduated Projects (Early Majority)
○ Incubated Projects (Early Adopters)
○ Sandbox Projects (Innovators)

7. CNCF Graduated Projects
● Kubernetes: Orchestration
● Prometheus: Monitoring
● Envoy: Service Proxy
● CoreDNS: Service Discovery
● Containerd: Container Runtime
● Fluentd: Logging

8. CNCF Incubated Projects
● Linkerd: ServiceMesh
● Helm: Package Management
● Etcd: Key/Value Store
● ...

9. CNCF Sandbox Projects
● KubeEdge
● OpenEBS
● ...

10. Cloud Native & CNCF Value Propositions
● Cloud Native Technologies empower organizations:
○ To build & run scalable distributed applications
○ In modern, dynamic environments such as public, private and hybrid clouds
● By using
○ Approach:
■ Containers, Container Orchestration, Service Mesh, MicroServices etc.
○ Open Source Software Stack:
■ Kubernetes, Prometheus, Envoy etc.

11. Cloud Native & CNCF Value Propositions
● Enabling us:
○ To design robust Distributed & Scalable Applications
○ Having loosely coupled systems that are resilient, manageable & observable
○ Combined with robust automation
○ Allowing us to make high impact changes frequently & predictably with minimal toil
● CNCF:
○ Drives the adoption of this paradigm
○ By fostering & sustaining an ecosystem of (Vendor Neutral) Open Source projects.

12. Why Organizations are adopting Cloud
Native
● For Better Resource Utilization
● For Multi-Cloud & Hybrid-Cloud Strategy
● For Modernization of Applications
● For Velocity & Agility - DevOps Practice
