The New Stack Podcast

Cloud Foundry’s Past, Present And Future Discussed Over Pancakes

Episode Summary

It is hard to believe for many, as it is for this writer, that Cloud Foundry has existed for more than a decade after it was founded in 2008. Since its beginning, it certainly has more than established itself as a platform as a service (PaaS) of choice for deploying and scaling open source applications. It  has also certainly played a role in the growing momentum in the adoption of Kubernetes, microservices, cloud native and other new technologies as well as many other open source tools that continue to help transform DevOps practices. In this episode of The New Stack Analysts podcast, we recorded a panel discussion held during a pancake breakfast at Cloud Foundry Summit North America earlier this month in Philadelphia with Cloud Foundry as the featured topic. Hosted by The New Stack’s Alex Williams, founder and editor-in-chief, and co-hosted by Joab Jackson, managing editor, panel invitees discussed Cloud Foundry’s evolution over the past few years and the key role it continues to play in the open source community. The panelists included: Abby Kearns, executive director, of the Cloud Foundry Foundation; Cornelia Davis, Vice President of Technology, Pivotal; Daniel Jones, CTO for EngineerBetter; Rick Rioboli, Senior Vice President and CIO, for Comcast; and Stephen O'Grady, an analyst for Redmonk.
