IPCEI CIS WS2 Cluster Kubernetes Meeting Recording #9 - September, 2026

In this MCK Meeting, participants explore two projects focused on security, interoperability, and sovereign cloud infrastructure. 🔐 openKCM introduces an open-source central key chain manager for customer-owned encryption keys. The project enables organizations to maintain full governance over their encryption keys across cloud-native and on-premise environments while retaining exclusive control over key material. ☁️ CloudAPI x BWI: A Unified API for Multi-Cloud Environments presents an approach to consuming cloud resources across different infrastructures through a consistent self-service experience. Built on technologies such as Platform Mesh, kcp, and OCM, the solution aims to reduce complexity, improve portability, and support interoperable cloud environments.
