Add krakend official image

[alombarte]

Hi there,

We are currently whitelisted as open-source contributors, and we would also like to add our KrakenD image to the official list.

Thanks!

I'm frankly very confused here by several things :see_no_evil: :innocent:

"We are currently whitelisted as open-source contributors" isn't a familiar phrase for me, so I'd love to hear more details on what exactly that means to you and/or the krakend project?

https://github.com/luraproject/lura/pull/488 (merged by a familiar face :eyes:) makes me wonder if it really makes sense to make a "krakend" image if it's going to be (has been for months??) renamed to "lura" ? What's the deal with https://www.krakend.io/ (no mention of Lura there I can find) ?

What's the relationship between @devopsfaith and the krakend / lura project/community? What is "krakend-ce" ? :grimacing:

Hi @tianon ,

Thanks for your quick response. I understand why you are confused, :joy: I will explain, no worries. The easy part: By whitelisted, I mean that we are already in the Open Source Program (and we are whitelisted for the data pull rate restrictions).

All these different names you are mentioning are things we drag from our history. @devopsfaith started as a group where some friends were creating projects for fun, and took a random name. KrakenD was hosted there in 2016 as one of the projects (there were also things like api2html). The @devopsfaith it will eventually disappear, and all repos transferred to the new @krakendio to precisely avoid this confusion.

Lura is to KrakenD similarly what Moby is to Docker. There is no Lura ready-to-use image, as it is an API gateway toolkit/libraries to build your own gateway. Lura was originally the "KrakenD framework" (KrakenD's engine) and donated recently to the Linux Foundation (press note). You can still see 302 the redirection to Lura here.

KrakenD CE was a distinction between the framework and the Community Edition (CE-). But today, when we talk about KrakenD, we are referring to the repo krakend-ce.

You probably have more questions, and I will be happy to answer, but let me do one to me. Why our Business Director @obokaman-com looks familiar to you? I am curious about it.
