Today at its SpringOne Platform Conference in Washington DC, Pivotal Software Inc. announced several updates to its Kubernetes and Hybrid/Multi-Cloud platforms. The company announced updates to its Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) platform, Pivotal Container Service (PKS) based on Kubernetes, and its Pivotal Applications Service (PAS). These updates will simplify and expand multi-cloud support to customers.
Pivotal refers to its PCF as one of the world’s most powerful cloud-native platforms. The latest version, version 2.3, like the previous versions is powered by industrialized open source (the larger open source projects and what Pivotal sees as more useful to itself, that are tested and used for its customers) and is aimed at delivering superior business outcomes.
PCF Highlights
Launched last year in collaboration with VMware and Google Cloud Platform, PKS is a commercial release of the open source Kubo technology that is aimed at helping Global 2000 companies operationalize Kubernetes. At the time we wrote, PKS intends to help operations teams deliver a hardened, maintainable container platform, while giving developers on-demand access to a production-ready environment featuring high availability, security, and multi-tenancy across private and public clouds. The adoption of Kubernetes is accelerating as is the interest in technology that supports it.
Upcoming PKS 1.2 Release Highlights
Pivotal is taking its auto patches and updates and brought it to the Windows side of users as well. PAS also comes with a slew of new releases.
