There are many more tools (open source and not) that are available, with many up and coming projects that are under incubation now. This list should not be seen as the be-all and end-all list of definitive tools, but simply a shortlist of some of the most popular tools being used at the time of writing this book. The important takeaway here is that automation and freedom is key. We will dive deeper into tool selection and management for your cloud-native operations in Chapter 8, Cloud Native Operations.
