“A number of our customers are looking to leverage cloud native technologies for important systems and our goal is to ensure complete reliability,” said Yuichi Nakamura, Director, Hitachi, Ltd. “We are joining CNCF as a Gold member so that we can accelerate our contributions to the cloud native community and ultimately help our customers deploy the most cutting-edge solutions possible. We are looking forward to collaborating with the community further.”
Security is also a big focus for Hitachi, particularly authentication and authorization of APIs/microservices. To address challenges, Hitachi has put resources towards the Keycloak project, which hides difficulties in protocols from cloud native applications and have worked to help prepare the project for the CNCF Incubator.
“Ensuring that the CNCF cloud native projects are reliable for mission-critical workloads is very important for our community,” said Priyanka Sharma, executive director of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. “We are thrilled to welcome Hitachi to the cloud native ecosystem and look forward to their contributions.”
