The Next One Year of CNCF
3. Storage: Container Storage Interface (CSI)
4. Serverless
As more companies plan to add serverless technologies to their stacks, the CNCF is
working to become the intersection of cloud native and serverless. If you’re
interested in getting involved, join our Serverless Working Group.
5. Security

The LAMP Stack of Cloud
My guess is that the LAMP of the cloud will look like the
following:
● Docker,Kubernetes,Helm, Istio, Spinnaker, Terraform
etc
● We are gradually converging into a Toolkit that
enables multicloud and no vendor lock-in.
