Kubernetes receives OSCON Most Impact Award

Kubernetes has received the Most Impact Award at the Open Source Awards at OSCON 2018. The award recognizes a project that has had a significant impact on how software is being written and applications are built in the past year.

Kubernetes was designed from a decade of experience running production workloads at Google. In four years, the community provided feedback and contributions to move the project forward to meet the needs of users everywhere. This openness led to Kubernetes’ rapid adoption and it’s also one of the core pillars of Google Cloud which believes in an open cloud, so that anyone can pick-up and move their app wherever they want. Whether it’s Tensorflow, an open source library for machine learning, Asylo, a framework for confidential computing, or Istio, an open platform to connect microservices, openness remains a core value at Google Cloud.

If you haven’t tried Kubernetes, it’s easy to get started with using Google Kubernetes Engine.
