I read on wikipedia that cloud foundry open source software is available to anyone whereas the Pivotal Web Services is a commercial product from Pivotal.
I kinda searched a lot on internet but did not find any cloud foundry open source software implementation example. Everything is for Pivotal product which provides a 2 months free trial service.
So can anyone tell me what is the cloud foundry open source software? And what exactly is the difference between cloud foundry OSS & Pivotal CF?

Cloud Foundry is a Platform as a Service that enables organizations to build, deploy, and run applications on a global scale. AWS is a Cloud Service that enables organizations to build, deploy, and run applications on a global scale.
Cloud Foundry is an open source initiative which defines a “Platform as a Service” stack which is independent of any cloud provider. Pivotal has utilized this open source framework and built their own layer of capabilities to the open source version as Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF).
Key differences between SAP Neo and SAP Cloud FoundryWhile SAP Neo is hosted in SAP data centers, SAP Cloud Foundry can be run by any infrastructure-as-a-service provider (hyperscaler) – from AWS to Microsoft Azure to Google Cloud Platform.
Cloud Foundry is an opinionated set of components that are designed and distributed to work together. Kubernetes is a flexible and extensible system with a wide range of open source components from which you can choose, install, configure and maintain.
Cloud Foundry is open source software, but if you are looking to tinker with it for the first time, using the OSS is a bit involved. You will need to have a provisioned cloud environment, you will install it yourself using MicroBosh, and everything will be done through the command line.
Pivotal Cloud Foundry is a commercial implementation that makes it easier to get up and running as you are learning the project. It provides a hosted environment in Pivotal Web Services so that you don't have to install it yourself, a web interface that makes managing the environment easier, and a number of pre-provisioned services including relational databases and messaging queues. This is the best starting point if you are just learning the technology.
