+
+[VMware Tanzu Community Edition](https://tanzucommunityedition.io/) is
+today expanding its support for cloud native application development and
+deployment with the addition of
+[kpack](https://github.com/pivotal/kpack), a Kubernetes-native automated
+container build platform that saves time for developers, while also
+enabling operations teams to deliver containers more securely, reliably,
+and consistently at scale. Kpack joins [Harbor](https://goharbor.io/),
+[Knative](https://knative.dev/docs/serving/), and other open source
+components of Tanzu Community Edition to further accelerate delivery of
+containerized workloads.
+
+Today's addition marks an important step toward simplifying application
+development and deployment for users of Tanzu Community Edition, the
+freely available open source distribution of VMware Tanzu that can be
+installed and configured in minutes on your local workstation or
+favorite cloud. Already delivering capabilities of the VMware Tanzu
+portfolio that target platform operators as an open source platform,
+Tanzu Community Edition is now adding technologies that underpin [VMware
+Tanzu Application Platform](https://tanzu.vmware.com/application-platform) to support
+application development teams. In time, Tanzu Community Edition will
+provide an automated and streamlined path to production, offering much
+of the commercial platform's technology base and serving as the upstream
+source for core capabilities of Tanzu Application Platform.
+
+## Kpack build automation serves developers and operators
+
+Kpack is a build automation platform that implements the powerful [Cloud
+Native Buildpacks](https://buildpacks.io/) specification. Driving the
+automation process, kpack leverages language-specific buildpacks, such
+as those available from the open source [Paketo](https://paketo.io/)
+project, to transform source code into container images.
+
+By using kpack to manage the container build process, developers can
+save time, eliminate worry, and focus on writing application code. Kpack
+builds OCI-compliant containers directly from source code, eliminating
+the need for developers to build and maintain dockerfiles. It analyzes
+the code to identify dependencies, and builds containers using approved
+versions of language libraries and operating systems (OSs), ensuring
+that internal compliance standards are satisfied. Further enhancing
+productivity, kpack also detects changes to source code, dependency, or
+OS components and automatically updates containers, using software that
+is approved by the developer's organization.
+

+
+Application operators and DevOps teams benefit too. Automated container
+re-builds update images rapidly and efficiently as container components
+are updated, saving time while also enabling operations teams to reduce
+the risks posed by Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs).
+Centralized management of container metadata -- including information
+about approved software versions for example -- makes policy enforcement
+easier so that ops teams can make informed image promotion and
+deployment decisions at scale. In addition, as part of the kpack build
+process, bill of materials (BOM) metadata is surfaced for every
+container built, enabling full-stack auditing, tracking, and container
+patching.
+

+and open source Paketo buildpacks [here](https://tanzu.vmware.com/content/blog/tanzu-community-edition-kpack-kubernetes-container-build-platform).
+
+## Growing developer support in Tanzu Community Edition
+
+With the addition of kpack, Tanzu Community Edition now provides a set
+of open source tooling that supports the core steps of service delivery:
+kpack turns source code into container images; the Harbor container
+registry signs images, scans them for vulnerabilities (using the
+embedded Trivy scanner), and provides secure registry services; Knative
+Serving simplifies deployment and running of services.
+
+!["Building a Path to Production in Tanzu Community Edition now including Open Source software components from Tanzu Application Platform"](/img/path-to-production.png)
+
+Because all of these capabilities are packaged as part of the Tanzu
+Community Edition platform, it is easy for platform operators to provide
+them to their users. In Tanzu Community Edition, kpack, Harbor, and
+Knative, as well as many other platform components, are all provided as
+part of a curated, open source platform distribution that is easy to
+install, can be flexibly configured, and consistently managed.
+
+Reaching this stage of functional support for application development
+and deployment marks an exciting milestone for Tanzu Community Edition.
+And there is more to come. Looking ahead, the Tanzu Community Edition
+project is expected to add supply chain choreography via the
+Cartographer open source project, as well as additional
+developer-focused capabilities that will enable developers to further
+simplify, accelerate, and secure the creation and delivery of cloud
+native workloads.
