Navigating the CNCF Landscape, the Right Way
summary
CNCF landscape lists ~1,019 cards with 2,957,938 total stars and groups projects into sandbox → incubating → graduated so you can check maturity before committing. Practical path: containerize (Docker, containerd), provision infra (Terraform, Pulumi), orchestrate on Kubernetes with CRI/CNI/CSI choices (Flannel, Calico, Cilium), add observability (Prometheus, Thanos/Cortex, Loki, Jaeger) and CI/CD (Flux, Argo). Advice: match requirements to project specs and build small POCs for alternatives; contribute via PRs or noncode routes (docs, triage, LFX internships, KCNA study).
