HashiCorp has joined the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), a move that aims to strengthen its presence in the cloud native computing ecosystem, improve product integrations with CNCF projects, and work more closely with the community of cloud engineers. The company plans to increase its participation at CNCF events, expand its technical support, and provide seamless integrations with popular projects such as Kubernetes, Envoy, and Prometheus. HashiCorp aims to make Kubernetes a first-class experience across all its products and collaborate on making other CNCF projects more accessible, offering a variety of options for leveraging secrets management tools like Vault in cloud native environments. The company also plans to engage more closely with the community through GitHub, Discuss forums, and other events to gather feedback and improve its products and processes.
