CNCF Membership Hub – Resources for Current Members

The Membership Hub addresses current CNCF members rather than prospective applicants, describing itself as a compass for navigating the membership journey. It states that members gain access to a variety of member programmes and benefits intended to support collaboration and engagement within the community. The page applies equally to members who have just joined and those involved for many years. Questions about membership are directed to the CNCF Membership FAQ.

• For existing CNCF members
• Curated resources on member programmes and benefits
• Membership FAQ linked for questions

The hub groups participation into six themes: Learn, Engage, Contribute, Amplify, Subscribe and Follow. Learning materials include the CNCF Charter, the Code of Conduct and the CNCF Overview Deck. Members are invited to attend community and member-only meetings each month, to review the Contributor Guide for code and non-code contributions, and to add their company to the CNCF Landscape by opening a pull request. Subscribing covers CNCF mailing lists, newsletters and the Slack workspace.

• Learn – Charter, Code of Conduct, CNCF Overview Deck
• Engage – community and member-only monthly meetings
