The OpenStack Foundation Board of Directors announced Wednesday that former pilot project Airship has been confirmed as a top-level Open Infrastructure Project of the OpenStack Foundation (OSF).
Starting from bare metal, Airship manages the full lifecycle of infrastructure to deliver a production-grade Kubernetes cluster with Helm-deployed artifacts, including OpenStack-Helm. Airship allows operators to manage their infrastructure deployments and lifecycle through the declarative YAML documents that describe an Airship environment. One workflow handles both initial deployments as well as future site updates.
Confirmation by the OSF conveys recognition of a project’s success in meeting the goals of the pilot process and a commitment from the OSF to continue supporting the project.
When evaluating a pilot project for confirmation, the OSF Board of Directors considers, among other factors, whether the project can demonstrate a strategic focus aligned with that of the OSF and its open infrastructure mission; well-defined governance procedures; a commitment to technical best practices and open collaboration, especially as conveyed by the principles of the Four Opens; or an actively engaged ecosystem of developers and users that demonstrates a growing, healthy and diverse community.
