The growth and innovation in the Kubernetes project, since it first launched just over four years ago, has been tremendous to see. In part 1 of my blog, I talked about how Red Hat has been a key contributor to Kubernetes since the launch of the project, detailed where we invested our resources and what drove those decisions. Today, that innovation continues and we are just as excited for what comes next.
In this blog, I’d like to talk about where we are going and what we’re focused on, as we continue driving innovation in Kubernetes and the broader cloud native ecosystem and building the next generation of OpenShift. In the first few years, Red Hat’s objective for Kubernetes was to build out a production grade modern Linux container platform, which was was an extension of Linux itself. Just as we made Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the world’s leading enterprise Linux platform, we are focusing on making Red Hat OpenShift the standard for enterprise Kubernetes.
We also focused on establishing open community container standards and protecting those standards by helping to launch both CNCF and the Open Container Initiative, to provide vendor neutral governance.
