Hell Freezes Over: The New Reality of Open Cloud Services and the OSBAPI - Josh McKenty, Pivotal

on YouTube ↗30m

" summary

Argues that the Open Service Broker API makes services portable across platforms (Cloud Foundry, Kubernetes) and demonstrates it concretely: wrote a broker in 24 lines of Python, ran it locally and curl catalog to get JSON back, showing provisioning, binding and credential delivery as a control plane only. Mentions tooling: Eden CLI for standalone catalogs and SDKs (Pivotal services SDK, SAP Service Fabric, Swisscom broker). Notes billing/entitlement is not yet standardized.
