[Q3-CNCF-Madison] Why the CNCF Matters to You

Transcript

1. Why the CNCF Matters to You Growing Community in the Cloud Native (Madison) Landscape Ryan Etten Senior Specialist Architect, Red Hat Cloud Native Madison Organizer
2. Today’s Roadmap Who is the Linux Foundation? Understanding Cloud Native Who is CNCF? How the CNCF Powers Innovation Joining the CNCF End User Community! - Promoting Cloud Native Madison!
3. Who is the Linux Foundation? Founded in 2000 as a merger between Open Source Development Labs and the Free Standards Group, it’s goal was to standardize Linux, support its growth, and progress it’s commercial adoption.
4. Understanding Cloud Native What actually makes something Cloud Native or not? ‘Native’ Definition - (computing) - “Designed for or built into…”
5. Cloud Native: A Mindset, Not a Monolith Cloud Native Philosophies, where something … a technology, an approach, a standard, a mindset is “Designed for” or “built into” (or for) the Cloud (Public, Private, or Hybrid) You’ll frequently see “Cloud Native” used in reference to architecture only… but it is much more than this! It applies to many different areas, hence the use of philosophies.
6. Cloud Native Architecture Where an application is built and designed using Cloud Native best practices
7. The Culture of Cloud Native Where different personas (i.e., DevOps / SRE / FinOps) promote and drive change, using Cloud Native practices
8. “My application is Cloud Native as it runs in the cloud.”
9. Benefits from Cloud Infrastructure Cost saving opportunities vs legacy, can be scaled as required Guaranteed Availability The Cloud Provider will often guarantee a level of availability in a specific region Cloud Provider API Beneficial for cloud automation especially with the likes of Terraform and Ansible Debunking Cloud Native Myths
10. Is the Application automated in its setup and delivery? Has the application been designed with resilience to protect from failure? Can the application automatically scale based on its operational workload? Is the application secure by default? Debunking Cloud Native Myths
11. “My application makes use of the following Cloud Native approaches…”
12. “Cloud Native is all about running my application in a container.”
13. The container errors out? The workload of that container exceeds the host limits? We have a noisy neighbor? Common Challenges
14. Architecture Community and Governance Personas Open Standards Cloud Native Philosophies
15. Navigating the Cloud Native Trail Containerization CI/CD Orchestration and Application Definition Observability and Analysis Service Proxy, Discovery, and Mesh Networking, Policy, and Security Distributed Database and Storage Streaming and Messaging Container Registry and Runtime Software Distribution
16. Who is CNCF? Founded in 2015, the CNCF hosts critical components of the global technology infrastructure. CNCF brings together the world’s top developers, end users, and vendors and runs the largest open source developer conferences.
17. Where Does the CNCF Fit? The Linux Foundation is much more than Linux today We are helping global privacy and security through a program to encrypt the entire internet. Security Networking We are creating ecosystems around networking to improve agility in the evolving software-defined datacenter. Cloud We are creating a portability layer for the cloud, driving de facto standards and developing the orchestration layer for all clouds. Automotive We are creating the platform for infotainment in the auto industry that can be expanded into instrument clusters and telematics systems. Blockchain We are creating a permanent, secure distributed ledger that makes it easier to create cost-efficient, decentralized business networks. We are regularly adding projects; for the most up-to-date listing of all projects visit tlfprojects.org Web Node.js and other projects are the application development framework for next generation web, mobile, serverless, and IoT applications.
18. Containers Cloud Native The Evolution: From Virtualization to Cloud Native •Cloud native computing uses an open source software stack to: ◦ segment applications into microservices, ◦ package each part into its own container ◦ and dynamically orchestrate those containers to optimize resource utilization Open Source IaaS PaaS Open Source PaaS Virtualiza- tion 2000 2001 2006 2009 2010 2011 Non- Virtualized Hardware 2013 2015 IaaS

27. How the CNCF Powers Innovation CNCF’s mission is to make Cloud Native computing ubiquitous.
28. The Cloud Native Computing Foundation seeks to drive the adoption of the ubiquitous paradigm by fostering and sustaining an ecosystem of open-source, vendor-neutral projects. CNCF Members CNCF Projects CNCF Project
29. What Does the CNCF Strive to Achieve (a) Fast is better than slow. (b) Open… the foundation’s technology must be available to all according to open source values. (c) Fair. The foundation will avoid undue influence, bad behavior or “pay-to-play” decision-making. (d) Strong technical identity. (e) Clear boundaries… to allow projects to effectively co-exist, and to help the ecosystem understand where to focus for new innovation. (f) Scalable. (g) Platform agnostic. CNCF Charter
30. 1. Better resource efficiency lets you to run the same number of services on less servers 2. Improved resiliency and availability: despite failures of individual applications, machines, and even data centers 3. Cloud native allows multi-cloud (switching between public clouds or running on multiple ones) and hybrid cloud (moving workloads between your data center and the public cloud) 4. Cloud native infrastructure enables higher development velocity – improving your services faster – with lower risk The Cloud Native Advantage
31. Cloud native practices empower organizations to develop, build, and deploy workloads in computing environments (public, private, hybrid cloud) to meet their organizational needs at scale in a programmatic and repeatable manner. It is characterized by loosely coupled systems that interoperate in a manner that is secure, resilient, manageable, sustainable, and observable. Cloud native technologies and architectures typically consist of some combination of containers, service meshes, multi-tenancy, microservices, immutable infrastructure, serverless, and declarative APIs — this list is non-exhaustive.
