The Cloud Native Computing Foundation announced on October 7, 2026, that European cloud provider OVHcloud has upgraded its membership to Platinum. The move deepens the company's involvement in open source standards and cloud native infrastructure.
Deepening Open Source Commitments
According to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), OVHcloud has elevated its membership to Platinum to extend its role in the open source community. CNCF Executive Director Jonathan Bryce noted the company's longstanding commitment to open infrastructure, including its early adoption of OpenStack and work contributing a Kubernetes Operator to Harbor.
OVHcloud CEO and Founder Octave Klaba stated that the upgrade allows the company to help shape open technologies, AI, and governance that give companies more choice and freedom to build.
Scaling Kubernetes and AI Workloads
OVHcloud operates thousands of production Kubernetes clusters across 20 public cloud regions using Cilium for multi-tenant networking, observability, and security. In March 2026, the company's AI Deploy and Managed Kubernetes Service were approved through the CNCF Kubernetes AI Conformance Program.
The CNCF announcement noted that the upgrade builds on the company's track record of upstream engineering as cloud native and AI infrastructure increasingly converge toward shared, vendor-neutral standards.
