The CNCF Cloud Native Glossary Project is intended to be used as a reference for common terms used when talking about cloud native applications. You can view and download the current version here.
If you'd like to help with the glossary we'd love to have your contributions! You can primarily help in 1 of 2 ways, by looking at the current completed definitions and making edits as needed or by heading over to the project board and grabbing an in progress item. We're in the middle of preparing the next 25 terms for the v2 release and any work you do would be extremely valuable.
Be sure to check out our style guide to see what's already completed, every entry has a bit of status metadata with it.
To make it easier to work on individual terms, we've moved them into individual files in the definitions folder. Each term falls under one of three categories: 1) technology, 2) property, and 3) concept.
To learn how to navigate this GitHub page and submit issues and/or PRs, please refer to the how-to guide. Before submitting a PR, please ensure you follow the style guide.
The Cloud Native Glossary was initiated by the CNCF Marketing Committee (Business Value Subcommittee), including contributions from Catherine Paganini, Chris Aniszczyk, Daniel Jones, Jason Morgan, Katelin Ramer and Mike Foster.
