History

Kubernetes was the first project accepted into the CNCF Incubator in March 2016 and remains a top open source project. Kubernetes not only shattered expectations for itself but it set a North Star for the entire CNCF ecosystem. CNCF has since grown to more than 184 cloud native projects and the success of Kubernetes in the CNCF established a baseline of what was possible for others.

Originally developed at Google and released as open source in 2014, Kubernetes builds on 15 years of running Google’s containerized workloads and the valuable contributions from the open source community. Kubernetes makes everything associated with deploying and managing applications easier.
