This video discusses the concept of Cloud Native and its significance. It emphasizes that Cloud Native is not a binary state but a collection of philosophies and best practices. It also highlights key players in the Cloud Native space, including the Linux Foundation and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). The video mentions Kubernetes as a pivotal project within CNCF and underscores the importance of understanding these organizations on a Cloud Native journey.
1. Cloud native is applicable to all cloud offerings: public, private, and hybrid clouds.
2. The term "native" in Cloud native refers to being designed for or built into a given system.
3. Cloud native encompasses various philosophies, not just a binary state, including architecture, culture, and best practices.
4. Running an application in a container is a positive step but doesn't automatically make it Cloud native; correct use of containerization methods is crucial.
5. Cloud native Computing Foundation (CNCF) is the primary organization responsible for promoting and developing Cloud native Technologies.
6. Kubernetes, donated by Google, was the first project submitted to CNCF and is hosted alongside other projects like Prometheus and Envoy.
7. CNCF oversees hundreds of projects and has received over 10 million contributions.
8. Understanding the Linux Foundation and CNCF is essential for a comprehensive grasp of Cloud native concepts.
