Open Standards

Many cloud native technologies rely on open source software, making it easier to get started and prevent vendor lock-in.
Collaboration in open source projects allows for the implementation of industry-wide standards.
Containers have evolved as a standardized way to package and ship modern software.
Docker is often used as a synonym for containers, but the industry standard is the Open Container Initiative (OCI).
The OCI provides standards for building and running containers, including image-spec, runtime-spec, and distribution-spec.
Open standards like these complement systems like Kubernetes, which is the standard platform for orchestrating containers.
Other open standards include OCI Spec, CNI, CRI, CSI, and SMI.
Systems like Prometheus and OpenTelemetry provide additional standards for monitoring and observability.
