GIFEE is an acronym for Google's Infrastructure for Everyone Else.
It's a term which has become a reference for open source equivalents of Google's technology.
GitHub/GIFEE is a place to experiment with ideas based on Google's infrastructure and for reference architectures.
GIFEE will be a reference architecture for cloud-native based on Google technology.
GIFEE projects will likely be hosted at gifee.cloud
Yes all GIFEE projects will be open source
Yes. Whether it be reference architectures, docs, images, whatever. Please join in on the fun.
