Cloud Foundry Introduction and Overview
6 likes4,247 views
The document discusses Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Cloud Foundry, an open source PaaS. Cloud Foundry allows developers to deploy and scale applications in seconds across clouds without vendor lock-in. It provides choice of development frameworks, deployment targets, and application services. Cloud Foundry has seen broad adoption due to its support for developer agility and portability across private and public clouds. It has also gained popularity through its open governance model and large, production-grade deployments.
Cloud Foundry Introduction and Overview

- 5. What’s Happening with Applications Today? Frameworks are what really matter • Developer productivity and innovation • Reduce time to market New application types • Mobile, Social, SaaS • Apps released early and often Data intensive • Emerging requirements: elasticity, multi-cloud • Web orientation drives exponential data volumes Deployed on virtual and cloud infrastructures • Virtualization, Cloud, PaaS 5

- 8. Why Cloud Foundry? Developer Agility • Friction-free way to develop, test and deploy applications • Focus on writing applications, not meddling with middleware and infrastructure Portability without changes • Write once, test-scale-deploy to private/public clouds without code changes • Quickly build and test on a laptop and scale to the cloud Open - The freedom to choose • Choice of clouds for deployment, industry frameworks, and application services • Extensible architecture to “future proof” for rapid cloud innovation • Community open-source project - access, evaluate and contribute 8

- 23. Cloud Foundry BOSH ! Cloud Foundry BOSH is an open source tool-chain for release engineering, deployment, and lifecycle management of large scale distributed services • Prescriptive way of creating releases and managing systems and services • It is not a collection of shell scripts, not a pile of Perl ! Built to deploy and manage production-class, large scale clusters • Production grade Cloud Foundry clusters: 500+ VMs, 40+ jobs, 75+ packages • Multi-node, multi-tier, complex clusters: e.g., our Gerrit/Jenkins Cluster ! Built for devops usage and scale by a crack team of veterans • A project, not a product: command line interface, YAML, etc. • Continuous improvement, iterative development, rough edges github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh 23
