14. The Cloud Foundry Architecture

16. Recent and Upcoming Features

17. • Re-architecture of the core elastic
runtime and related components
• Graduated from Incubator in October
2015
• Currently working towards 1.0 marker
– Target scale of 250k AIs
• “Garden” container layer adopting
runC from the Open Container
Initiative
• Used commercially in several
distributions today
• Required for CF Certification in 2017

18. • Ceph as POC storage system
• Storage services extensible via the
marketplace
• Storage can be multi-attach (NFS) or
local scratch space
• Example usage:
> cf push wp-app --no-start
> cf create-service cephfs free wp-data
> cf bind-service wp-app wp-data -c ‘{"mount":"/app/wordpress/wp-content"}'
> cf start wp-app

22. • Backwards compatible with v2
• Consistent API which is discoverable and not surprising
• Faster, update with less downtime
• Easier to manage, Procfiles provide support for Web and
Tasks within an application
• Modular, rollback to a previous version
• Tasks, run arbitrary commands within the context of your app

23. • Dramatically simplifying BOSH deployment manifests
– Dynamic IP management
– Global Cloud Config
– 1st class support for multi-AZ job striping
– Manifest enhancements
• Allows CF service brokers to potentially build in on demand BOSH
provisioning of services
• Note: Opting into use of Cloud Config requires all deployments to use
the manifest v2 format
• Available as of BOSH-release v255.4+
