- 12. Cloud Foundry BOSH An open source tool chain for release engineering, deployment, and lifecycle management of large scale distributed services. • Packaging w/ embedded OS • Server provisioning on any IaaS • Software deployment across clusters • Health monitoring (server AND processes) • Service state monitoring • Self-healing w/ Resurrector • Storage management • Rolling upgrades via canaries
- 13. cf push Automates Developer + Operator workflows After you cf push, PAS: ➢ Uploads your code ➢ Detects and installs required runtime & middleware (“Buildpacks”) ➢ Sets up a route (or URL) ➢ Creates a load balancing entry ➢ Creates SSL termination ➢ Creates health monitoring & logging subsystems ➢ Starts your app in a healthy state, with the desired number of instances ➢ Binds specified backing services
- 14. BOSH GCP Service Broker Harbor NSX-T Kubernetes K8s Cluster K8s Cluster K8s Cluster Built with open-source Kubernetes — Constant compatibility with the current stable release of Kubernetes, operated by BOSH. No proprietary extensions. Production-ready — Highly available from apps to infrastructure, no single points of failure. Built-in health checks, scaling, auto-healing and rolling upgrades. Multicloud — BOSH provides a reliable and consistent operational experience. For any cloud. Network management and security out-of-the-box with VMware NSX-T. Multi-cloud, multi-hypervisor. GCP APIs access — The GCP Service Broker allows apps to transparently access Google Cloud APIs, from anywhere. Easily move workloads to/from Google Container Engine (GKE). Fully automated Ops — Fully automated deploy, scale, patch, upgrade. No downtime. Use CD pipelines to deploy your platform, too. VMware GCP Azure Openstack AWS PKSController
- 15. Execute functions in response to events. Use PFS to handle web events, event-based integration, and large scale streaming data. Pivotal Function Service (PFS): A Runtime for Functions Trigger functions via HTTP/Message Broker — PFS is architected to support event stream processing, connecting to message topics via a language-neutral, function container interface. Run functions anywhere — PFS lets you easily run functions on-premises and in the public cloud for maximum flexibility. Use modern DevOps workflows — PFS allows you to use familiar, container-based workflows for serverless scenarios. Pluggable event brokers — PFS can be connected easily with popular message brokers such as Kafka, RabbitMQ, Google Pub/Sub, and AWS Kinesis. Polyglot — PFS supports the authoring of functions in your chosen framework - Node.js, Spring/Java, or Shell. Kubernetes Native — PFS runs natively on top of Kubernetes, making it easy to trigger code or containers in response to events.

- 40. Cover w/ Image Why TDD Writing a test first helps: ● Gain the CONFIDENCE you need to REFACTOR your code to keep it CLEAN so that you can GO FAST FOREVER. ● Tease out and think through your APIs. ● Clarify exactly what behavior you’re trying to build. ● Know when you’re done. ● Triangulate on simple, maintainable implementations, by making each test pass one by one. ● Write just enough code to make each test pass.

- 42. The Deployment Equation Micro- services Automated Pipelines Self-service Infrastructure Deploys Test-Driven Development - Increase test coverage - Co-locate cognitive work - Reduce hand-off waste Continuous Integration - Automate undifferentiated heavy lifting - Code always ready for deployment to production Visibility - Team alignment - Minimize interpretation overhead
