I want to thank our community for attending this year’s Cloud Foundry North America Summit. This was our first Summit on the East Coast and it was a huge success.
Following the Boston Marathon, we kicked off Summit with some major announcements. SUSE has officially joined the ranks of Certified Providers as the only Cloud Foundry Application Runtime that runs in Kubernetes. Cloud.gov, an open source PaaS provided by 18F, became the first government Certified Provider.
Alibaba Cloud joined Cloud Foundry Foundation as a Gold Member and announced a new CPI for Alibaba Cloud. Additionally, IBM announced its latest offering Cloud Foundry Enterprise Edition.
