Netflix, the streaming video company, has released a tool called Spinnaker that it says "is an open source multi-cloud Continuous Delivery platform for releasing software changes with high velocity and confidence."

Netflix partnered with Google, Microsoft, and EMC's Pivotal to build Spinnaker over the past year or so, and have released the platform code on GitHub.

Spinnaker supports deployment to AWS, Google Cloud Platform, and Pivotal Cloud Foundry today, with support for Microsoft Azure "actively underway". There are also plans to add support for containers "in coming months".

    Forbes views on OpenSource kind of fall out on the floor in page two of this article. They're all, "Why would Netflix want to share this innovation with the world and not keep the competitive advantage to themselves." Short sighted, completely missing the point...

    Netflix isn't a cloud integration company. Their biggest competition (Amazon, Walmart's streaming thing as a distant third possibly) all have their OWN cloud system and aren't likely interested in diversifying their cloud platform. Netflix has nothing to lose by releasing this and all the usual OpenSource benefits by opening it.

    Forbes is an Apple fanboy site these days and seems to be against openness of any kind at times.
