CNCF TOC: State of the Ecosystem #187

Open rochaporto opened 2 months ago

rochaporto commented 2 months ago

Intent

The intent of this assessment is to ascertain where the ecosystem is nearing comprehensiveness, where there are opportunities of innovation, and to redirect focus of community members to active areas of interest and need by projects and adopters.

Our Request

We ask each TAG:

  1. Prepare a 1 page document that addresses the prompt questions below.
  2. Engage your WGs to provide no more than 3-5 sentences that address the prompt questions. a. WG responses are in addition to the 1 page document covering the breadth of the TAG
  3. Please provide the information no later than November 1st 2024.

The TOC will review these reports prior to KubeCon North America and develop a plan of action for public review before the end of the calendar year.

Why?

The resulting State of the ecosystem will become a public report to the community and will serve to guide the TOC in restructuring our advisory groups and their working groups to address the problems of today and tomorrow against the realities of current contributions and participation in our groups and projects.

Prompt Questions

  1. How do you see the completeness of the ecosystem in your specific domain? Are there any specific areas not properly covered by the projects in our ecosystem?
  2. How do you see the alignment between different projects in the specific domain of your TAG (with examples)? And do you see close alignments with projects in other domains?
  3. Are there particular challenges in the TAG’s area, both current and foreseen for the upcoming years?
  4. Do you see areas of overlap with other TAGs or individual WGs? If so, which ones?
  5. How do you see the overall status of project health?
  6. How do you see the overall trend of innovation and new projects or capabilities in your domain?
  7. For each WG in your TAG, a. Has their initial purpose been completed? b. Are the WG’s artifacts and deliverables a service provided to projects or the TOC? I.e. security reviews, governance reviews, etc. c. Has the WG reassessed its progress towards its initial goals? d. Is there an updated timeline for the WG to accomplish its goals? e. Does the WG feel additional effort and focus needs to be conducted to close gaps of their sub-domain within the ecosystem?
