Interesting tech marketing from Amazon

I thought this was worth sharing as an example of the sort of tech-biz guidance that members of the CNCF community could write. The piece is by someone from AWS and talks about cloud native vs other cloudy things.

Storage Patterns for container native - community content
Hi,
Following the discussion at the last TOC call, I’m attaching a doc to cover the topics that we are volunteering to generate for the community. As background, we are proposing to focus this series on storage related patterns, starting with an overview and moving onto more complex use cases and examples. We are planning to generate roughly an article a week on average for around ~3 months.
I’m keen to understand if this is in line with what you think would be useful to the community and would be interested in any feedback and comments. We would obviously be more than happy to work with anyone else who might be interested in contributing and/or any opportunity for joint work on any of the topics.
Doc is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/14vVawyRcRRPm_mGZfl-tpQDCq2Q9aWxeHgdpZLAWnzU

CNCF CI Goals
Dan Kohn <dan@...>
CNCF is gearing up to make a significant set of investments into Continuous Integration (CI) in 2017. I wanted to lay out some of our goals as well as what we are not trying to achieve. Feedback and updates on these are welcome. In general, we're looking for discussions to occur on cncf-ci-public@... so please join that list if you are interested in the subject. Non-goals All CNCF projects already make extensive use of CI. We are not aiming to replace their existing CI, or require them to use our platform, or force them to follow specific standards or processes. CI is a fast-moving ecosystem and project maintainers are in the best position to adjust intra-project CI based on their own requirements. We don’t want to build our own testing framework or harness. There are tons of perfectly adequate ones. We want to integrate existing tools to provide useful results to our projects and our community, not develop a new testing project from scratch. Goals We want any testing work we fund to integrate continuously. Ideally, that means running on every commit via web hook. If technology or economic reasons dictate, it could instead run daily or other periodic basis. No manual setup should be needed. We need any work we fund to be open source. It’s acceptable for it too be built on top of closed source platforms like CircleCI, TravisCI, AWS, etc., but if CNCF funding is paying for code to be written, we need that code to be open source. That allows it to be reviewed, improved, iterated on, etc. by others, especially by developers from individual projects. All test frameworks eventually have problems of false positives, false negatives, and flapping (i.e., intermittent failures). We want to use best practices to document and minimize these. The GitHub Status API is a de facto standard for third-party CI services to integrate with GitHub and other services. Any work we fund should (eventually) implement the GitHub Status API, and be integrated into relevant projects as long as false positives are at a sufficiently low level. CNCF is helping develop a cloud native software stack that enables cross-cloud deployments. Cross-project CI that ensures ongoing interoperability is especially valuable. We’re also interested in a dashboard that shows the cross-project interoperability status of both the latest released version and HEAD of each CNCF project. We would also like to ensure that CNCF projects are able to deploy successfully on to most (and ideally all) public clouds as well as bare metal private clouds and common infrastructure like OpenStack and VMWare. -- Executive Director, Cloud Native Computing Foundation <https://cncf.io/> tel:+1-415-233-1000 |

Re: Cloud Native Infrastructure book
Gianluca Arbezzano <gianarb92@...>
Hello all I am Gianluca (twitter.com/gianarb, github.com/gianarb). I started to write something under a title "Docker in production" but my first idea was to produce something about how to manage modern and scalable distributed systems. After few months I realized that I can not do that alone and I decided to release some chapters (that was already written) as whitepapers. I am still looking around to have the opportunity to write something about these topics, I am ready to write a book alone but I am open to taking part with some chapters. This seems a good opportunity. Just ping me if you like. Gianluca 2017-01-31 21:23 GMT+00:00 Alexis Richardson via cncf-toc <cncf-toc@...>: Hi all --

Cloud Native Infrastructure book
Justin Garrison <justinleegarrison@...>
Hello, I'm working on a book with O'Reilly on Cloud Native Infrastructure. The book is focusing on general practices and ideas for how you should set up your infrastructure to manage cloud native applications. It will show examples with CNCF projects but I hope to not go too in depth (1-2 chapters per project) so I can still reference other books/resources if readers want to dig deeper into a project. The book isn't targeting a single cloud and I hope to keep the design principles as generic as possible so readers can replicate the ideas in any cloud including on-premises. The reason I'm emailing the list is I'm going to need some help (this is my first book). Thank you everyone who has already reached out to me and offered assistance. I'll reply as soon as I'm able to. Right now I'm looking for the following resources.
I have already submitted the book proposal and am moving forward with the project but haven't actively started writing. I'm still gathering/organizing thoughts and information. If anyone has resources they'd be able to share please send them. Thank you for any help you can provide and I'm sure I'll be asking the community for more reviews and feedback in the coming months. |

Re: [RESULT] linkerd project proposal
All CNCF projects are currently incubating or inception, none have graduated at the moment. It's something we are working on later this year as the graduation criteria was recently accepted: Thanks! On Mon, Jan 23, 2017 at 8:30 AM, Lee Calcote <leecalcote@...> wrote:
