Who runs CNCF?
Funding. CNCF's revenue is derived from four primary fundraising sources, including membership, event sponsorship, event registration, and training. A basic premise behind CNCF, our conferences (including KubeCon + CloudNativeCon), and open source, in general, is that interactions are positive-sum.Priyanka Sharma

CNCF projects are the foundation of cloud native computing

As part of the Linux Foundation, we provide support, oversight and direction for fast-growing, cloud native projects, including Kubernetes, Envoy, and Prometheus.

Who are CNCF competitors : Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF)'s competitors and similar companies include Exclaimer, BEENOS, Pentalog and Archer.

Is CNCF non profit

CNCF is part of the nonprofit Linux Foundation.

Who runs Kubernetes : Google

Originally designed by Google, the project is now maintained by a worldwide community of contributors, and the trademark is held by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation.

Prometheus is one of the highest velocity CNCF projects, with broad adoption across the IT industry globally, so it's no wonder that the Prometheus Certified Associate (PCA) has become one of our most popular certifications.

The CNCF was formed in 2015 in response to the abundance of organizations and services adopting cloud native systems. A project created by the Linux Foundation, the CNCF is an open source software foundation that promotes the adoption of cloud native technologies.

Is Grafana a CNCF project

Grafana Labs joined CNCF as a silver member in 2017 and has been a prolific contributor to CNCF projects, most prominently Prometheus and Cortex, but also Thanos, Jaeger, and OpenTelemetry.Prometheus was only the second CNCF project to graduate, after Kubernetes.Kubernetes itself is an open-source project, governed by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. VMware contributes heavily to the open-source Kubernetes software base and is deeply involved in Kubernetes communities and governance.

In 2015, Google donated Kubernetes to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) (link resides outside ibm.com), the open source, vendor-neutral hub of cloud-native computing. Kubernetes became the CNCF's first hosted project in March 2016.

Is Grafana part of CNCF : Grafana Labs joined CNCF as a silver member in 2017 and has been a prolific contributor to CNCF projects, most prominently Prometheus and Cortex, but also Thanos, Jaeger, and OpenTelemetry.

Is Istio a CNCF project : Istio was accepted to CNCF on September 30, 2022 at the Incubating maturity level and then moved to the Graduated maturity level on July 12, 2023.

Who owns Containerd

the Cloud Native Computing Foundation

containerd was created by Docker and donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).

Prometheus is an open source monitoring system for which Grafana provides out-of-the-box support. This topic walks you through the steps to create a series of dashboards in Grafana to display system metrics for a server monitored by Prometheus.The Kubernetes master node handles the Kubernetes control plane of the cluster, managing its workload and directing communication across the system.

Who is behind Grafana : Torkel Ödegaard. Torkel is the creator of Grafana, the open source metrics dashboard that Grafana Labs is built around. He enjoys seeing people use metrics more through beautiful and easy to use software. Torkel is infatuated with the theory of evolution.
