"With the emergence of Docker container as standard image format and Kubernetes as the standard for orchestration container, we finally see the continuity in how people approach operations distributed applications, "said Boris Renski, CMO of Mirantis ." the combination of Kubernetes and fuel will open OpenStack a new delivery model that enables faster consumption of updates, help customers get results faster. "

to further support Kubernetes on OpenStack , Mirantis will become an active contributor to Kubernetes project to become a contributor during the next year. Mirantis also joined the Aboriginal Cloud Computing Foundation, a project of the Linux Foundation and organization dedicated to advancing the development of native cloud services and applications, as silver member.

"As part of the Intel Cloud to any initiative, working with CoreOS, Google and Mirantis integrate OpenStack and Kubernetes help accelerate the deployment of tens of thousands of new clouds," said Jonathan Donaldson, vice president of Intel and general manager, Software Defined Infrastructure, Data Center Solutions Group . "Our joint efforts married two complementary and powerful open source communities, making it easier for companies to manage private clouds. "
