Upbound, the company behind open source projects Rook and Crossplane, announced Alibaba Cloud and Microsoft have joined the Crossplane project.

"We launched Crossplane over a year ago to bring the same control plane-centric approach pioneered by cloud providers like AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud to the enterprise and open source community," said Bassam Tabbara, Founder and CEO of Upbound.

Microsoft Azure and Alibaba Cloud have been collaborating with Upbound on bringing the Open Application Model to the cloud native community.

"Alibaba Cloud and Microsoft invested in the Open Application Model because we believe that modern application platforms need to promote a standard and team-centric approach to building, running, and managing applications," said Xiang Li, Senior Staff Engineer, Alibaba Cloud.

In response to strong Crossplane community momentum and demand, Upbound has launched a preview of their fully-managed service offering of Crossplane - Upbound Cloud.
