Why Broadcom gave Velero to the CNCF Sandbox — and what it means for Kubernetes data protection
About this episode
The episode discusses Broadcom's donation of Velero to the CNCF Sandbox and its implications for Kubernetes data protection.
Broadcom continues to expand its role as a major contributor to cloud-native open source, particularly within the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) ecosystem. Its recent donation of Velero—originally developed by VMware—to the CNCF Sandbox reflects a strategic move to foster broader community trust and collaboration. By shifting governance away from vendor control, Broadcom aims to position Velero as a truly community-driven data protection standard for Kubernetes environments, encouraging wider adoption and contribution.
