Following an over 70% surge in certified offerings, the program now includes agentic workflows and introduces stricter v1.35 requirements to eliminate infrastructure fragmentation Key Highlights KUBECON + CLOUDNATIVECON EUROPE, AMSTERDAM—24 MARCH, 2026— The Cloud Native Computing...

The CNCF Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) has voted to accept Fluid as a CNCF incubating project.  What is Fluid? Kubernetes provides a data access layer through the Container Storage Interface (CSI), enabling workloads to connect to...

We are thrilled to announce that llm-d has officially been accepted as a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) Sandbox project! As generative AI transitions from research labs to production environments, platform engineering teams are facing a...

OpenTelemetry has become the de facto standard for collecting and exporting telemetry data across cloud native systems. Its success has been driven by strong community collaboration, a clear specification, and a growing ecosystem of language-specific SDKs...

An application, composed of one or more containers as dictated by system architecture, that operates either independently or as part of a distributed collaboration—interacting with at least one other entity (container) or achieving quorum-based consensus. It...

Open source has become the foundation of modern software — but the scale and speed of today’s software supply chains are creating new security challenges. Applications depend on hundreds or thousands of components across complex environments,...

Metal3 (pronounced “metal cubed”) entered 2026 as one of the newest incubating projects in the CNCF. As the foundational layer for infrastructure management in self-hosted Kubernetes clouds, Metal3 and its ‘stack’ offer essential solutions for cloud...

The cloud native ecosystem moves fast and the professionals building it move even faster. Over the past decade, Kubernetes has grown from an underdog orchestration system into the backbone of modern infrastructure. As organizations adopt cloud...

The world of AI workloads is changing fast. A few years ago, “AI on Kubernetes” mostly meant running long training jobs. Today, with the rise of Large Language Models (LLMs), the focus has shifted to include...
