+title: Flux project gains New Corporate Support and Ecosystem in 2024

+
+The CNCF graduated Flux project is proud to announce that it will receive
+enhanced support from dedicated companies in 2024.
+These organizations are committed to the ongoing maintenance
+and development of Flux GitOps tools.
+[At KubeCon EU 2024 in Paris, the Flux project has keynote highlights, sessions, and a booth.](https://fluxcd.io/kubecon/)
+
+## Vendors and clouds are stepping up contributions
+
+Major vendors are ramping up their ecosystem involvement in Flux moving forward.
+[GitLab announced its continued support for Flux](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/2024/03/05/the-continued-support-of-fluxcd-at-gitlab/) and working with partners.
+In early 2023, GitLab integrated Flux with its agent for Kubernetes offering as the recommended GitOps solution.
+
+Similarly, Flux continues to be the GitOps engine for cloud vendors such as Microsoft and AWS.
+Lachie Evenson at Microsoft affirms that "Flux is the engine that powers several GitOps
+experiences on Azure as well as in our customer’s environments' and that Microsoft
+is committed to upstream contributions.
+
+> Flux is the engine that powers several GitOps experiences on Azure
+> as well as in our customer’s environments. We will continue to invest
+> in Flux through upstream contributions for the long-term health and
+> support of the project, and downstream partnerships to help customers
+>
+> Lachie Evenson, Principal PDM Manager – Cloud Native Ecosystem, Microsoft
+
+Both Azure and AWS use Flux to streamline
+Kubernetes cluster and application management, adopting GitOps principles
+for enhanced automation, security, and reliability in cloud-native application
+deployments for Azure Arc Kubernetes and EKS-Anywhere.
+
+## New Enterprise adopters: Silva project, Cisco, Tchibo, and more
+
+Flux’s significant benefits show in its widespread adoption by large-scale
+enterprises across various sectors, including telecommunications and financial services.
+The new Sylva project showcases [the critical role of Flux for its complex telecom cloud native environments](https://sylva-projects.gitlab.io/release-note/).
+Sylva streamlines the management of Kubernetes workload clusters, specifically designed
+to deploy Containerized Network Functions (CNF) provided by both external CNF vendors
+and telecom operators' in-house services. As Orange VP of Software Engineering affirms,
+Flux’s security, modularity, resilience, and community all contribute to how it is the GitOps framework of choice.
+
+> We are really happy to observe new big tech shops bringing their support to Flux.
+> It should give to everyone the confidence to keep committing and investing.
+> The level of quality and security, and the modularity of Flux have been prime
+> reasons for our decision to use it two years ago to automate the deployment
+> and lifecycle management of network functions. Our Linux Foundation Sylva-based
+> cloud native infrastructure relies on the strength and resilience of the Flux community.
+> Flux’s technology and community make it the GitOps framework in our Telco networks.
+>
+> Philippe Ensarguet, VP Software Engineering, Orange
+
+Other long-time Flux [adopters](https://fluxcd.io/adopters/) who have added themselves to the public
+list recently include Cisco and German retailer, Tchibo.
+
+## New Support and Ecosystem: Hirings and Value-Add Extensions
+
+While several ecosystem companies are coordinating to step up as maintainers,
+contributors, and supporters of Flux,
+[ControlPlane was first to hire Stefan Prodan](https://control-plane.io/posts/controlplane-backs-the-cncf-flux-project-by-employing-maintainers/) (Flux project maintainer and architect as well as Flagger creator)
+and Soulé Ba (core maintainer) to continue their contributions.
+As ControlPlane CEO, Andrew Martin, has reinforced their commitment to help maintain the project,
+which is part of their offering of an enterprise-grade distribution of Flux,
+including support services for critical system.
+
+> ControlPlane is delighted to continue supporting the Flux project for all users,
+> and to provide organisations utilising Flux with access to a hardened,
+> FIPS-compliant, enterprise-grade distribution of Flux.
+>
+> Andrew Martin, CEO, ControlPlane
+
+In addition, companies such as Aviator, OpsMX, OpsWorks Group,
+OSO and Teracloud began providing support for Flux among their offerings.
+
+At KubeCon EU 2024 in Paris, these and other companies in the ecosystem
+will meet at a [Birds of a Feather meeting](https://kccnceu2024.sched.com/event/1akzm?iframe=no)
+to kick off further commitments
+to add value to Flux’s extensibility and ecosystem reach.
+
+## Cloud Native Computing Foundation Exemplar Project
+
+At this juncture, the Flux project is a strong graduated project within the
+Cloud Native Computing Foundation with continued recognition from CNCF CTO,
+Chris Aniszczyk, who states how Flux exemplifies the strength and resilience of the community.
+Flux reached General Availability in December 2023 and blew through its
+second security audit with the CNCF with no CVEs.
+The project’s published [benchmarks](https://fluxcd.io/blog/2023/12/flux-v2.2.0/#benchmark-results)
+results demonstrate why cloud vendors
+and enterprises alike have been trusting Flux with their needs for scale.
+
+> I am glad to see the continued support across the open source cloud native community for Flux.
+> I encourage other organizations to get involved as there's never a bad time to contribute
+> to an open source project you depend on. Also, this is a great example of the strength
+> and resilience of our community and we look forward to Flux's continued evolution and growth.
+>
+> Chris Aniszczyk, CTO, CNCF
