Editor's Notes
- #22: Now lets consider the example of cloud foundry deployment itself. We discussed before how BOSH deploys Cloud Foundry. Now before BOSH starts the deployment, there are few other steps like Cloud Foundry template generation which can be automated via tapping into open source ruby libraries like ERB, or Embedded Ruby etc. Coming back to BOSH, different steps like creating and uploading a stem cell to microbosh deploy to finally deploying CloudFoundry with the required runtimes and services can all be automated as well.
- #23: Great - so we just witnessed few of the examples of the power of Open source community, Leveraging Chef, fog, BOSH from the community can help create powerful automation which can be repeatedly and consistently replicated in under 3 hours !
- #24: So the marriage of OpenStack and Cloud Foundry happened and end to end installation and configuration can be automated. What next ? Well we need to grow the family - or in other words deploy lots and lots of applications. My colleague Jason is now going to take us thorough how Cloud Foundry and OpenStack provide inherent characteristics for scaling
- #26: Cloud Foundry has a highly available architecture and OpenStack needs to be configured in a similar fashion. This is one of the great selling points of OpenStack is its configurability.
- #28: Cloud Foundry has a great scalability which needs to be mimicked at the IaaS Layer Internally we wanted to build a scaled out environment in our lab and we’ve determined the following points of consideration
