A guide demonstrating the prevelance of open source in cloud providers.
Our goal is to show readers that open source software is essential to building cloud applications, whether they be on public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, or multi-cloud.
Over the past two decades, the rise of cloud technologies and the proliferation of open source software have developed in tandem, with open source software now underpinning all major clouds. A 2020 O'Reilly Survey highlights how hiring managers are looking for developers who have open source development, even more than skills related to a single proprietary cloud. The 2021 Open Source Jobs Report from the Linux Foundation echoed this desire for developers who are skilled in open source software development.
With that backdrop, we decided to create a guide that highlights how cloud providers are using open source in their offerings and to offer guidance on where you can go to gain skills.
Largely, this guide is for software developers and technical folks wanting to know the landscape of open source software and their prevalence at major cloud providers.
This guide will not:
- Deep-dive on any one technology.
- Exclude any cloud providers.
- Be an exhaustive list of all open source projects in the space.
Update the following pages:
Create a PR!
- Create a new file in guides based on the other files in that directory.
- Update nav-items.yaml to include the new file.
Requirement:
- Node v14 (will not work on later versions)
NOTE: You can use n to switch between Node versions.
