The '''Cloud Native Computing Foundation''' ('''CNCF''') is a [[Linux Foundation]] project that was founded in 2015 to help advance [[Operating-system-level virtualization|container technology]]<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.cncf.io/announcement/2015/06/21/new-cloud-native-computing-foundation-to-drive-alignment-among-container-technologies/ |title=New Cloud Native Computing Foundation to Drive Alignment Among Container Technologies |date=2015-06-21 |website=Cloud Native Computing Foundation |language=en-US |access-date=2020-01-20}}</ref> and align the tech industry around its evolution.
It was announced alongside [[Kubernetes]] 1.0, an open source container cluster manager, which was contributed to the Linux Foundation by [[Google]] as a seed technology. Founding members include [[Google]], [[CoreOS]], [[Mesosphere,
