Re: [VOTE] CoreDNS project proposal (inception)
Dan Kohn <dan@...>
Also, Camille, please note that CoreDNS (along with all of the other smaller projects) will be holding a salon at CloudNativeCon/KubeCon Berlin on March 30, at which we're hoping to attract new users, and potentially new developers. The OpenTracing salon in Seattle got good reviews and so we're expanding the format. Here's the salon schedule: https://cloudnativeeu2017.sched.com/overview/type/Salon Also a reminder that we just crossed over 1,000 attendees for Berlin, and will likely be selling out, so that is an excellent time to get your tickets.

Re: CNCF TOC Open Agenda - call for topics
Swarna Podila (Avi Networks) <swarna@...>
Agreed. This comes up often; we need documentation resources about the projects and on how these projects compare/contrast with vendor-supported solutions.
Best,
Swarna.

Re: [VOTE] CoreDNS project proposal (inception)
Camille Fournier
I'm +1, with the strong encouragement for this project to find more active committers. It really looks like a one-person show right now. Comparing to our other inception project, which has 7 people who seem to have more than 25 commits, this project has only 1 person who dominates the commit history. But I think we can do inception with the current status. C

Re: Storage Patterns for container native - community content
Yaron Haviv
Alex,
I agree with Clinton’s point that we want to focus on what makes Cloud-Native different, not sure covering all the legacy Storage protocols serves that purpose There are too many users today that try to fit VM concepts into Cloud-Native and take us out of focus The key point is allowing continuous development and ops, elasticity, distribution, .. Looking at the 12 factors, notions of Stateless & immutable tasks, Service bindings (to data), Atomicity are enabling that
It’s a different craft than today’s storage approached as I highlighted in my blog post, e.g. you don’t snapshot/backup a POD, you build it from a Git tag You use message queues to enable elastic scaling and fault-tolerance, you store data using atomic operations (to Obj/NoSQL) vs trust file-systems to flush data out and risk inconsistent states. For the guys who would argue they want to snapshot stateful services like Mongo/Cassandra/Object, a short reminder is those are un-coordinated scaled-out instances, and in many cases versioning and re-builds are built into it

Alex,
Sorry for the late review. My concern currently is that the document spends 80% of the time talking about what is known about some storage platforms today and the last portion discussing what looks to be technical details of a specific storage platform implementation. Cloud native with storage is definitely different, and just applying existing hardware thinking to this new area doesn't feel quite right.
Here are some of the questions that I think should be answered which leads towards a "what is cloud native storage topic".
What makes storage in cloud native computing different? What cloud native applications require persistent storage of any form? What kinds of storage services are used with cloud native applications? What role does integration and interoperability play to build cloud native storage? What opportunities do cloud native orchestrators present for operating persistent storage platforms? What is cloud native storage?

Hi,
We have prepared the content for the first topic in the list (albeit a little later than we hoped for). This is the first doc we have produced and is meant to serve as an overview of storage concepts to provide some background before going into the more detailed content articles we are planning next. We have tried to keep it fairly broad and have touched on some of the technologies found in many enterprises as well as in CN environments like virtual and distributed options.
I’d like to know your thoughts and get feedback and comments (I’m sure there will be loads) so that we can make it a better doc for the community. Also, as per the previous request – we would be very happy to work with anybody else who might have some time to contribute!

ANN: Formation of Working Groups
alexis richardson
All,
An agenda item for the TOC f2f was the possible formation of "working groups". These have come up a number of times in the last 9+ months since the TOC formed. The idea is to spawn CNCF TOC discussions off into their own groups, with a stated topic and chairperson. I am pleased to report that the TOC have reached consensus on this, following discussions in Tahoe. CNCF now has: * Storage WG chaired by Ben Hindman * CI WG chaired by Camille Fournier * Cluster WG chaired by Bryan Cantrill For now, WGs are chaired by TOC voting members. This is not a perpetual requirement. Let's keep it that way until we know more. As with CNCF OSS projects, WGs will be as self-governed as possible. Some norms may emerge in time and even become rules. As of today: * Feel free to contact the named people to join discussions. * Feel free to initiate discussions on the CNCF TOC list, pending creation of lists / docs / whatever the WGs need. * Feel free to request updates alexis

Re: Interesting tech marketing from Amazon
Yaron Haviv
Andy, thanks, sure we should follow w “How” after the “Why”
Another reason for that order is to set the architecture context, e.g. many still view containers as lightweight VMs, can see requests for volume backup/snapshots, “vmotion” .. those violate the cloud-native notion of “disposable” containers/micro-services (which enable reliability, changing versions on the fly, scaling-out, .. i.e. continuous dev & ops).
I assume once CNCF defines the why/goal we should come with a reference architecture of how to enable these next gen apps, e.g. see a great post from Brian Gracely on Cloud-Native apps & data architecture: http://wikibon.com/new-applications-require-a-modern-look-at-data-management/
Note how he captured both Biz/CIO level (why) messages with the tech details (how)

I agree the emphasis of our outbound messaging should be on the why (and the "what's in it for me?"). And Yaron's suggestion of "because it gets you business agility through continuous dev and ops") sounds good to me as a first stab in
that direction. That's good marketing. It will certainly get someone interested if they hear that cloud native will help them make their business more agile.

Re: Interesting tech marketing from Amazon
Andrew Randall
I agree the emphasis of our outbound messaging should be on the why (and the "what's in it for me?"). And Yaron's suggestion of "because it gets you business agility through continuous dev and ops") sounds good to me as a first stab in that direction. That's good marketing. It will certainly get someone interested if they hear that cloud native will help them make their business more agile. However we also, I think, must define what "cloud native" actually is. Because once you've got them sold that cloud native has the right kind of attributes, they will want to know what it actually means to implement it. And if the answer is "cloud native is anything that makes your business more agile" or just "continuous dev and ops" (with nothing to explain how that's achieved) then we will be perceived as nothing more than a marketing organization with no technical credibility. At the risk of being controversial I would posit that has the following implications:: 1) we must be somewhat opinionated about what makes something "cloud native" -- otherwise everything is cloud native (that obviously doesn't mean we have to say "you must use some specific technology" to be cloud native) 2) without a litmus test that most legacy apps and infrastructure technologies fail, then it is meaningless 3) similarly, in order to be meaningful, it must be possible for cloud native as we currently define it to be made obsolete in the future. (At which point we can wind down or redefine our mission -- but if our definition of cloud native continues to work whatever the developments in technology in the future, then it's not specific enough.) I really want CNCF to be perceived as relevant and pointing the way for the industry. If we just churn out platitudes (aka motherhood and apple pie) we will fail. Andy

If anyone care to watch Simon’s talk pointed by Tony: "people don't buy WHAT you do, but WHY you do it", Containers, micro-services, .. are the what, my point is we should focus on the Why
i.e. Why cloud-native? = e.g. enable biz agility through continuous dev & ops (or any other suggestion) Note that other points below like resiliency, speed of change, dynamic scaling .. All fall under a bigger message of continuous dev & ops which solves the biggest challenge biz have: faster and sustainable digital transformation at lower budgets
The tech can be containers today, maybe server-less functions or whatever tomorrow, the key is the collaboration and standardization driven by CNCF to reduce friction and complexity in the new stack

I agree with some earlier comments about being too opinionated. A broad definition could be "a computing environment focused on optimizing for applications in cloud operating models". This feels like the most natural and direct way to define cloud native computing while ensuring the relevance to how we are seeing people make use of it today and tomorrow.
The definition leads to a lot of what was discussed in this thread. - Requirements (interoperability/composability, automation/orchestration) - Patterns (micro-services, scale-out, DevOps, CI) - Components (cncf landscape) - Benefits/features (resilience, scale, efficiency, resilience, portability)

That's very concrete, and provides a framework for explaining what and why.
