OpenEBS is the most popular and widely used CNCF Kubernetes storage platform project. More than 700,000 people rely on our project for fast + reliable Kubernetes native storage. OpenEBS has been a CNCF sandbox project since 2019, open source and completely free. DataCore Software sponsors the project and donates significant community resources to the daily engineering of the project via a world-class storage engineering team of 20+ engineers, working together with hundreds of community contributors from across the world.

The CNCF Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) advised the project team to make changes to the project: improve community experience for repo + project structure, ensure documentation is current, improve project governance (see issue https://github.com/cncf/toc/issues/1051). In Feb 2024, CNCF TOC changed the project status to “Archive” and invited our team to implement these changes, then re-apply for promotion to Sandbox.

To TOC and our hundreds-of-thousands of users: thank you for your support. Yes we intend to make these improvements and re-apply to CNCF Sandbox after they are completed. During this process, we will update our community with what we intend to do, and progress against plan.

This is the parent issue for tracking our improvement project. We will post information soon on changes that unify product functionality and project roadmaps.

Finally, if you’re using OpenEBS, and if you’ve had a positive experience, and wish to show your support, please leave a comment below and add yourself to our ADOPTERS.md file.
