The TOC does not pick a “winning stack” - i.e., vertically integrated set of projects as a solution for multiple application problems. This means that the CNCF is not promoting a single, monolithic stack of technologies.
CNCF projects may have dependencies on other open source projects that comply with the [CNCF IP policy](https://github.com/cncf/foundation/blob/master/allowed-third-party-license-policy.md), which may be outside the CNCF. Widely-used dependencies are preferred; pluggable dependencies fit well with our principles but are not essential. _Examples: Kubernetes' dependency on etcd, which was not a CNCF project at the time Kubernetes was brought into the CNCF; CNI, which enables pluggable networking dependencies._
