In only three years, CoreOS has grown from a company in a Silicon Valley garage that set out to rebuild the security of the Internet to a business leading the renaissance of cloud native infrastructure and advancements, building and bringing enterprise Kubernetes and GIFEE to all.

With the release of Kubernetes version 1.3 just around the corner, we’d like to share a preview of the CoreOS contributions helping guide the community toward this important milestone. Kubernetes is seeing a lot of early adoption in the enterprise and that continues to drive rapid feature development. The CoreOS team chose to concentrate on a few key areas that will further Kubernetes uptake in data centers around the world:

Persistent storage in container cluster infrastructure is one of the most interesting current problems in computing. Where do we store the voluminous stream of data that microservices produce and consume, especially when immutable, discrete application deployments are such a powerful pattern? As containers gain critical mass in enterprise deployments, how do we store all of this information in a way developers can depend on in any environment? How is the consistency and durability of that data assured in a world of dynamic, rapidly iterated application containers?
