Founding Members:

Cloud Foundry Conceptual Architecture

5

Identity management service for the platform. Acts as an OAuth2 and SCIM* provider.

Exposes a REST API to the system. Manages a database of apps, services, service instances, etc

End user provided code that is “pushed” to the cloud and packaged to run in a container

A collection of code that is responsible for transforming pushed app artifacts into a ready to run droplet

A distributed deployment install and management tool that abstracts the details of the IaaS layer (Bosh Outer Shell)

Web Applications Mobile Backends

• Scalable cloud centric web applications and APIs supporting mobile workloads

• Leveraged many different language runtimes (Ruby, PHP, JavaScript, Java)

• Migration from competitive offerings: Heroku, Amazon, Rackspace

• Back end services replacing custom code hosted on IaaS (e.g. Push Notification)

• Cloud Code for offloading business logic from the mobile client

• Integrated into iOS and Android native applications using BlueMix
