A Retrospective on a Decade of Contributing to Cloud Foundry

links:none on file
slides:none on file

Timeline of decisions that made Cloud Foundry reliable: Diego replaces fragile DEAs, swaps etcd for plain MySQL and scales 250,000 containers after a two‑year rewrite; Cloud Controller V3 rethinks objects and replaces metaprogrammed V2, enabling processes, packages and droplets but leaving many users on V2; a perm microservice for custom roles fails against V2 complexity so CF management and cron jobs fill the gap; logs standardize to RFC3339 timestamps but an octet‑framed syslog change once breaks downstream parsers.
