What exactly is Cloud Foundry? An infrastructure independent open Platform-as-a-Service initiated by VMwareand now owned by Pivotal Software - a joint venture by EMC, VMware andGeneral Electric. Designed to be polyglot in nature, providing a diverse choice of clouds,developer frameworks and application services. Enables easy integration with middleware services and APIs. Is at the core of many public and private PaaS services and solutions, includingPivotal CF, Pivotal Web Services, and Stackato. 2018 Web Age Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved3

Some History First launched in May 2011 as one of the first PaaS offerings developed based on openstandards with full JEE support. Has evolved continuously from being offered initially just as a public PaaS to now beingoffered both as a public (OpenShift Online & Dedicated) and private (OpenShiftEnterprise) PaaS. The core cloud framework that both OpenShift Online and Enterprise build on is alsoavailable as an upstream and open-sourced community project (OpenShift Origin). Core platform and architecture were fully revamped recently to build around Dockerand Kubernetes. 2018 Web Age Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved4

BOSH BOSH is an open source tool that allows creating, deploying and managing thelifecycle of large-scale distributed services. Was originally created by Pivotal Software to manage Cloud Foundry releases. Has evolved significantly since its inception and has swiftly gained popularity inbeing used as a release management tool for use cases beyond Cloud Foundry. BOSH can now be used to deploy any distributed system of release componentsto the cloud (or virtual machines). BOSH supports multiple IaaS Platforms such as AWS, vSphere, vCloud Director,vSphere, OpenStack etc and provides a CPI (Cloud Provider Interface) thatallows extending it to other providers such as Google Compute Engine (GCE),Apache CloudStack etc. 2018 Web Age Solutions, Inc.

BOSH (cont.) BOSH is a recursive acronym for Bosh Outer SHell. The service or componentbeing deployed and managed by BOSH is called the “Inner Shell”. There are three main constituents to a BOSH Deployment: Stemcell Release Deployment Manifest 2018 Web Age Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved11

Spring Cloud Connectors Spring Cloud Connectors is an open source project that provides an abstractionfor JVM-based applications to discover bound services and deploymentinformation at runtime. Eliminates the need for configuring service connectivity details with theapplication context/ configuration. Provides support for a set of services for Cloud Foundry and Heroku out of thebox. Fully and easily extensible to support:– Additional Cloud Platforms– Additional Services 2018 Web Age Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved16

Understanding Config Formats Before using Cloud Foundry, it is essential to understand the different configformats it leverages:– JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)– YAML (Recursive acronym for YAML Ain’t Markup Language) 2018 Web Age Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved18

Understanding Config Formats (cont.) JSON allows language independent representation of data as:– Collection of name/ value pairs, and/or– An ordered list of values Cloud Foundry leverages JSON format for requests and responses of its RESTAPI (covered later). YAML is a data-serialization language that supports indented representation ofvalues to enhance readability. YAML is the format used by BOSH Deployment Manifests. 2018 Web Age Solutions, Inc.
