Other tools have also shown impressive growth.Amazon ECS is up to 22%from 13%,CAPS up to 13%from 1%,Cloud Foundry has risen to 20%from 1%,and Docker Swarm is now on 27%from 16%.
While on-premise solutions are widely used in the North American and European markets(64%),said CNCF,that number is declining for the Asian market.Only 31%of respondents used on-premise solutions in this latest research,compared to 60%in March 2018.
Cloud usage is growing with 43%of respondents using private clouds(up from 24%)and 51%using public clouds(up from 16%).This equates to a combined 135%increase in cloud use in Asia.
CNCF says it is attracting a large number of new Chinese members to the organisation,with R&D China Information Technology,Shanghai Qiniu Information Technologies,Beijing Yan Rong Technology and Yuan Ding Technology among those recently joining.
