Google joins the Cloud Foundry Foundation
December 15, 2016
Brian Stevens
Vice President, Cloud Platforms
From the beginning, our goal for Google Cloud Platform has been to build the most open cloud for all developers and businesses alike, and make it easy for them to build and run great software. A big part of this is being an active member of the open source community and working directly with developers where they are, whether they’re at an emerging startup or a large enterprise.
Today we're pleased to announce that Google has joined the Cloud Foundry Foundation as a Gold member to further our commitment to these goals.
Building on success
We've done a lot of work with the Cloud Foundry community this year, including the delivery of the BOSH Google CPI release, enabling the deployment of Cloud Foundry on GCP, and the recent release of the Open Service Broker API. These efforts have led to additional development and integration with tools like Google Stackdriver for hybrid monitoring, and custom service brokers for eight of our GCP services:- Google BigQuery
- Google Cloud Storage
- Google Cloud SQL
- Google Cloud Pub/Sub
- Google Cloud Vision API
- Google Cloud Speech API
- Google Cloud Natural Language API
- Google Translation API
Collaborating with customers and partners as we’ve worked on these projects made the decision to join the Cloud Foundry Foundation simple. It's an energized community with vast enterprise adoption, and the technical collaboration has been remarkable between the various teams.
