The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) is an open-source, vendor-neutral organization that hosts key cloud-native projects like Kubernetes and Prometheus, aiming to make cloud-native computing universal and sustainable.

CNCF oversees projects that extend Kubernetes, offering additional capabilities. Some of these projects include:

  • CRI-O: A container runtime for managing Kubernetes containers
  • CNI: A pluggable network interface for Kubernetes
  • Jaeger: An application operator for packaging, deploying, and managing apps
  • Rook: A storage orchestrator for Kubernetes

CNCF defines project statuses as follows:

  • Sandbox: New projects, mainly used by innovators
  • Incubating: Projects being slowly adopted
  • Graduated: Fully mature projects integrated into the Kubernetes ecosystem
