Kubernetes Opportunities, Challenges Escalated in 2019 News
If 2018 was the year that Kubernetes broke into the mainstream, then 2019 was the year that reality set in. And that reality is that while Kubernetes is awesome, it’s also hard.
The Kubernetes ecosystem did its usual part in feeding the market by staying on track in rolling out quarterly updates to the platform. And that feeding has helped Kubernetes continue to steamroll the cloud market. However, ongoing security and commercialization challenges showed that growth is not coming without challenges.

Open Mainframe Project Continues Rapid Growth as Three New Academic Members Commit to Modernizing the Mainframe through Open Source for Enterprise Applications
The Open Mainframe Project (OMP), an open source initiative that enables collaboration across the mainframe community to develop shared tool sets and resources, continues to see rapid growth with a new project Polycephaly, based on IBM DBB using Groovy script to build z/OS applications with Jenkins and Git, and three academic institutions from China: Beijing Institute of Technology, South China University of Technology, and Xidian University. The new project and members solidify Open Mainframe Project's mission to educate and train the next generation of developers and engineers.
"As lifelong mainframers begin to retire, it is our job to make sure that we equip students, developers and engineers with the training and resources they need to continue innovating mainframes and enterprise applications," said John Mertic, Director of Program Management for the Linux Foundation and Open Mainframe Project. "We are particularly ecstatic to collaborate with these universities from China as our geographical footprint expands."

Red Hat: Open-Source Software Poised To Play A Bigger Payments Role
One can almost feel it in the bones: the excitement to come in the world of payments in 2020, as innovation sparks new business models and disruption.
Part of that future seems likely to involve open-source software, and that’s why PYMNTS recently caught up with Arvind Swami, director of FSI for Asia-Pacific at Red Hat. The company made news over summer when IBM closed its $34 billion acquisition of the open-source software firm. IBM had agreed to purchase the software company in October, marking the largest acquisition in the company’s history of more than 100 years, Reuters reported.
Red Hat, which launched in 1993, specializes in Linux operating systems — an alternative to Microsoft’s proprietary software.
As Swami told PYMNTS, open source could spark more payments innovation in the coming decade, as more players involved in payments look to affordable, interoperable and collaborative solutions that are relatively easy to scale — in this case, helped along by cloud computing technology and the work of developers to improve payments technology.
“Most of the people who contribute to [open-source software] are users, and that’s the key for open source,” he said. “It’s easy to consume, and highly usable.”
