    14  ## Upcoming features
    15  
    16  A few areas of work are ongoing. (This is not exhaustive.)
    17  
    18  ### Package orchestration
    19  
    20  See the [package orchestration roadmap](https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kpt/blob/main/porch/docs/porch-roadmap.md)
    21  for more details.
    22  
    23  ### Explore various options for function runtime
    24  
    25  Currently, `kpt fn render` has dependency on docker to execute functions in pipeline.
    26  There are performance and docker dependency issues reported by customers. We will
    27  be exploring different function runtimes in order to address those issues. This is
    28  just an exploratory step and actual implementation if any, will be taken up after December 2021.
    29  [Tracking issue](https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kpt/issues/2567).
    30  
    31  ### Additional storage beyond Git
    32  
    33  Currently, `kpt pkg` workflows only support Git repositories. There is some increasing
    34  demand from users to support other storage options beyond git(e.g., OCI). We will
    35  be spending time understanding the use-cases and need for this project. [Tracking issue](https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kpt/issues/2300).
