Cloud Foundry creates complementary ecosystem for diverse usage
For many, the concept of digital transformation is considered a buzzword, but it’s quickly becoming apparent that there’s more to the trend. Across industries, from longstanding insurance companies to government institutions to hipster startups, the evolution is happening for modernizing applications and embracing developer-driven operations is through open-source. One popular platform, Cloud Foundry, is solidifying its ecosystem to enable the digital transformation in enterprise computing environments and beyond.
“It’s one of the more mature products that I see out there that people are using today, and it works,” said Lauren Cooney (pictured), founder and chief executive officer of Spark Labs. “You don’t have to cobble things together … it’s pretty seamless for the most part.”
Cooney spoke with Stu Miniman (@stu), host of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile livestreaming studio, at the Cloud Foundry Summit in Boston, Massachusetts. They discussed the conference and Cloud Foundry’s ecosystem. (* Disclosure below.)
Cloud Foundry outlines complementary ecosystem
Cloud Foundry — which started in VMware, Inc., and then transferred to Pivotal Software, Inc. — has evolved into a sizable ecosystem that is helping a wide array of companies become digitally savvy and evolve into the digital space through open source. The number of members and the quality of end users are important to look at when assessing an ecosystem, according to Cooney, and Cloud Foundry has been successful so far.
“For example, you had T-Mobile on stage [at the event], and they have 1,700 users of Cloud Foundry that are actually building across that in their own company,” Cooney said. “So that right there is a pretty good number for one company.” Cloud Foundry is enterprise ready and it works, Cooney added.
Kubernetes and Cloud Foundry don’t compete against each other, either, according to Cooney. “Cloud Foundry and Kubernetes actually are complementary,” she said. “[On] both platforms there are tools that can be enabled on Cloud Foundry for … situations that developers and companies need. … [They are] two things running side by side that work with each other.”
Cooney is most excited about the new SUSE Cloud Application Platform that brings Kubernetes and Cloud Foundry together for Cloud.gov. “I think that is just phenomenal that they pulled that together,” she concluded.
