Join the Infrastructure Lifecycle Working Group 💙
Are you looking to influence the future of infrastructure management in cloud-native environments? The CNCF Technical Oversight Committee has recently approved the Infrastructure Lifecycle working group within the TAG App Delivery, and we need your expertise!
As cloud-native practices evolve, infrastructure needs are becoming more complex. IT professionals now face the challenge of managing workloads across different environments. These include cloud platforms, IoT edge devices, on-premises data centers, and hybrid setups. There were already considerable investments in both open-source and commercial solutions. However, IT professionals still look for standards that address the whole infrastructure lifecycle.
This working group aims to define technology-agnostic best practices in infrastructure lifecycle management. We will deliver a framework for managing the lifecycle of cloud-native infrastructure, with a focus on components such as:
- Infrastructure as Code
- Control Planes
- State Management
- Disaster Recovery
- Automation
- Testing
- Observability
To accomplish our deliverable, we need your help in collaborating with relevant Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs), Working Groups (WGs), vendors, and end-users to integrate domain-specific expertise. Your participation will help us develop practical, real-world solutions that address the diverse needs of the community. Every voice matters, and we warmly welcome and encourage contributions from everyone interested in this field! 🎤
Co-chaired by Ryan Nowak (Microsoft), Bruno Schaatsbergen (HashiCorp), and Jochen Zehnder (Inventx) and various active members, the group brings together expertise from leading industry professionals.
