Welcome llm-d to the CNCF: Evolving Kubernetes into SOTA AI infrastructure
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…
Cloud native agentic standards
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…
Policy-as-Code: Flexible Kubernetes governance with Kyverno
Overview Kubernetes has fundamentally transformed how enterprises deploy and manage business workloads. As organizations build production applications at scale on Kubernetes, cluster size and complexity continue to grow—creating unprecedented challenges in ensuring cluster security, compliance, and…
The great migration: Why every AI platform is converging on Kubernetes
When Kubernetes launched a decade ago, its promise was clear: make deploying microservices as simple as running a container. Fast forward to 2026, and Kubernetes is no longer “just” for stateless web services. In the CNCF…
Scaling organizational structure with Meshery’s expanding ecosystem
As a high velocity project and one of the fastest-growing projects in the CNCF ecosystem, Meshery’s increasing scale and community contributions necessitates this recognition, which requires a revision to its governance and organizational structure that better…
Exposing Spin apps on SpinKube with GatewayAPI
The Gateway API isn’t just an “Ingress v2”, it’s an entirely revamped approach for exposing services from within Kubernetes and eliminates the need of encoding routing capabilities into vendor-specific, unstructured annotations. In this post, we will…
Building platforms using kro for composition
Recent industry developments, such as Amazon’s announcement of the new EKS capabilities, highlight a trend toward supporting platforms with managed GitOps, cloud resource operators, and composition tooling. In particular, the involvement of Kube Resource Orchestrator (kro)—a…
Bringing data center observability into the cloud native world
When people talk about cloud-native observability, the conversation usually revolves around applications, containers, and microservices. However, under those layers lies an equally critical foundation: The physical data center. Servers, storage systems, and networks ultimately host every…
