SEATTLE ~ Today, Upbound, the company behind the popular open source project Crossplane, announced that it is donating the core projects powering its official providers for AWS, Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) under the Crossplane project. This move is intended to accelerate the thriving open source ecosystem around control planes.
Chris Aniszczyk, CTO of CNCF, commented on this donation: "Open source foundations like CNCF ensure there is a level playing field for all participants, vendors and users alike, which in turn helps promote a truly healthy, growing ecosystem. With Upbound's contribution, the cloud-native ecosystem can trust that the Crossplane community remains a dependable and open platform to build upon."
Crossplane is a framework for platform engineers to build control planes. It sits above any environment or cloud and helps engineers customize the APIs they expose so their developers have a simpler, safer, self-service interface that adheres to their organization's needs. To help engineers create more mature providers and save time, Upbound created code generation technology that produces Crossplane providers.

Mitch Connors from Aviatrix said: "Cloud ecosystems require open source communities to grow, but the pool of truly open source cloud automation tools is shrinking. This donation to the Crossplane project ensures that both the framework and the providers built on top of it remain open for all to use, and sets the stage for the Crossplane ecosystem to grow under the guidance of the CNCF."
Bassam Tabbara from Upbound added: "Upbound remains a critical maintainer and steward of the Crossplane project and we believe in supporting the provider ecosystem around Crossplane. With this donation, we open up a path to the ecosystem to converge around providers all under the trusted governance of the Crossplane project and CNCF."
The donation of these projects will allow users to boost their confidence when building with Crossplane more effortlessly as well as remove any doubt about future viability of these critical components. They can use and build with fast automation of API documentation and example configurations which will benefit thousands of engineers building control planes. Community members and customers can access Upbound's free Marketplace to browse, use and collaborate on providers for Crossplane.
