Ericsson, NTT and Verizon among eight new Cloud Foundry members
The Cloud Foundry Foundation announced the addition of eight new members this week. Ericsson, NTT and Verizon are among those looking to contribute to and benefit from the open source platform as a service initiative, which is telling of how seriously telcos are looking at digging deeper into the cloud stack.Cloud Foundry, which earlier this year was spun off from Pivotal to form an independently governed foundation, added eight members to the fledging group. Along with the telecoms players, those members included IT heavyweights Accenture, GE and Capgemini, along with BNY Mellon and Intel.
