By, Sajith Ainikkal In this brief talk I will touch up on how Pivotal & CloudFoundry Foundation driving a Cloud Agnostic Platform based approach towards building modern cloud native applications without worrying about the hassles of 'Day 2' issues of managing VM and Container clusters and its adoption across enterprise segments. I will also talk about few of the latest stuff in the market including the developments in BOSH, Open Service Broker APIs initiative and OCI (Open Container Initiative). Today Cloud Foundry Garden and Docker are two implementations of OCI and Garden containers can run a Cloud Foundry / Docker /Windows container image.

Open Container Initiative.
• Under Linux foundation
• Established in June 2015
• Currently 2 Specs
Ø Run time
Ø Image
• CF uses OCI runC as
core container runtime
• Interoperability &
Portability

24. 24
• The Open Service Broker API project allows developers, ISVs
and SaaS vendors a single, simple and elegant way to deliver
services to applications running within cloud native offerings
including Cloud Foundry, Openshift and Kubernetes.
• Influenced by Cloud Foundry’s Service Broker API concept
• Launched in Dec 2016 this project is joined by people from
Fujitsu, Google, IBM, Pivotal , Redhat and SAP

25. 25
Project Kubo
• BOSH-Powered, Web-Scale Release Engineering for Kubernetes.
• Joint project between Google and Pivotal.
• Announced by Google in Google Next 2017
• Problem Kubo Solves – Uniform way to instantiate, deploy and
manage Kubernetes clusters in HA mode on any cloud
• Help for ‘Day 2’ Operations
• Self healing VMs & Monitoring via BOSH
• Elastic scaling of clusters*
• Rolling upgrades to latest Kubernetes core*
• High Availability & Multi AZ support.
