(Allabouttechwiki) – Gradually, yet steadily and seemingly surely, evolving into a prominent, if not important, fixture in the landscape under the big theme of cloud computing is, according to a wide array of experts, analysts, and professionals, a newish tech outfit, deftly set up and solidly established with a clear, concise, and perfectly comprehensible objective and quite a commendable ambition, and presently known around the IT circle as the much applauded, aptly named Cloud Foundry Foundation.
This establishment actively and energetically introduces, tirelessly, if not indefatigably, promotes, advances and popularizes itself and its own bright image as definitely a proud and noble not-for-profit entity, truly free or absolutely untethered from influence or sway by any interest-group with narrow-minded individual agendas; and it has been created and formed purportedly to stably sponsor, foster and support the progress, rollout, furtherance, growth and business integration of its own so-called Cloud Foundry program/system, with the ultimate glittering aim of making it finally become the one truly universal, globally accepted, and one-hundred-percent accessible, practicable norm or benchmark firmly underpinning the increasingly popular, much implemented cloud-computing approach known throughout the industry as platform-as-a-service (or in its quaint acronym form as PaaS), and indeed this technically elegant Cloud Foundry program, already rigorously certified with a gilt-edged Apache 2.0 license, has been proven and demonstrated to be able to generate and consistently maintain an accommodative, conducive and favorable cloud-computing environment or ecosystem in which all sorts of applications and products can be innovatively developed, straightforwardly tested, conveniently implemented and easily modified or simplistically tweaked to suit the situations at hand.
A very short time ago, the organization overseeing, administering and steering Cloud Foundry started publicizing the accession of a brand-new crop of business corporations, including not only IT outfits but also others investing diligently in the technology of cloud computing, to this standard-unifying platform.
This public announcement, which does attract quite an amount of attention, and generate quite an amount of discussion, hence means that, after just a really short, perhaps amazingly short, period of time, Cloud Foundry has smoothly evolved into an impressive cloud-computing platform with significant stature and formidable technological heft, boasting as permanent participants a splendid club of half a century big-name IT providers and other business organizations that extensively apply IT in their everyday operation, located all over the globe; and an exact figure cited by the foundation makes it clear that platform-as-a-service has been occupying the largest chunks of substantial investment in cloud computing so far, which is anticipated to grow exponentially, in the near-term at least, with a big majority of medium enterprises throwing bucket-loads of cash at this novel, yet extremely helpful technology.
