Deploy and scale applications on Cloud FoundryAbout This Book• Gain hands-on experience using Cloud Foundry• Implement deployment, management and scaling of applications on Cloud Foundry• Learn best practices and troubleshooting tips for running applications on Cloud FoundryWho This Book Is ForThis book is aimed at developers, engineers and architects who want to learn key aspects of developing and running applications on the Cloud Foundry Platform.Prior knowledge Cloud Foundry is not necessary.What You Will Learn• Understand Cloud Foundry (CF) tools and concepts.• Understand the breadth of possibilities unleashed through a lightweight agile approach to building and deploying applications.• Design and deploy cloud native applications that run well on Cloud Foundry.• Learn Microservice design concepts and worker applications.• Customize service brokers to publish your services in the Cloud Foundry marketplace.• Using, managing and creating buildpacks for the Cloud Foundry Platform.• Troubleshoot applications on Cloud Foundry• Perform zero-downtime deployments using blue/green routes, A/B testing, and painless rollbacks to earlier versions of the application.In DetailCloud Foundry is the open source platform to deploy, run, and scale applications. Cloud Foundry is growing rapidly and a leading product that provides PaaS (Platform as a Service) capabilities to enterprise, government, and organizations around the globe. Giants like Dell Technologies, GE, IBM, HP and the US government are using Cloud Foundry innovate faster in a rapidly changing world.Cloud Foundry is a developer's dream. Enabling them to create modern applications that can leverage the latest thinking, techniques and capabilities of the cloud, including:• DevOps• Application Virtualization• Infrastructure agnosticism• Orchestrated containers• Automation• Zero downtime upgrades• A/B deployment• Quickly scaling applications out or inThis book takes readers on a journey where they will first learn the Cloud Foundry basics, including how to deploy and scale a simple application in seconds. Readers will build their knowledge of how to create highly scalable and resilient cloud-native applications and microservices running on Cloud Foundry. Readers will learn how to integrate their application with services provided by Cloud Foundry and with those external to Cloud Foundry. Readers will learn how to structure their Cloud Foundry environment with orgs and spaces. After that, we'll discuss aspects of continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD), monitoring and logging. Readers will also learn how to enable health checks, troubleshoot and debug applications.By the end of this book, readers will have hands-on experience in performing various deployment and scaling tasks. Additionally, they will have an understanding of what it takes to migrate and develop applications for Cloud Foundry.Style and ApproachA practitioner's guide to Cloud Foundry that covers the areas of application development, deployment and services.

Create highly efficient design patterns for scalability, redundancy, and high availability in the AWS CloudKey FeaturesBuild highly robust systems using the cloud infrastructureMake web applications resilient against scheduled and accidental downtimeExplore and apply Amazon-provided services in unique ways to solve common design problemsBook DescriptionWhether you're just getting your feet wet in cloud infrastructure or already creating complex systems, this book will guide you through using the patterns to fit your system needs.Starting with patterns that cover basic processes such as source control and infrastructure-as-code, the book goes on to introduce cloud security practices. You'll then cover patterns of availability and scalability and get acquainted with the ephemeral nature of cloud environments. You'll also explore advanced DevOps patterns in operations and maintenance, before focusing on virtualization patterns such as containerization and serverless computing. In the final leg of your journey, this book will delve into data persistence and visualization patterns. You'll get to grips with architectures for processing static and dynamic data, as well as practices for managing streaming data.By the end of this book, you will be able to design applications that are tolerant of underlying hardware failures, resilient against an unexpected influx of data, and easy to manage and replicate.What you will learnImplement scaling policies on schedules, influxes in traffic, and deep health checksMake complete use of highly available and redundant storageDesign content delivery networks to improve user experienceOptimize databases through caching and shardingApply patterns to solve common problemsImplement repeatable processes for deploying systemsWho this book is forIf you’re an architect, solution provider, or DevOps community member looking to implement repeatable patterns for deploying and maintaining services in the Amazon cloud infrastructure, this book is for you.You’ll need prior experience of using AWS understand key concepts covered in the book, as it focuses on the patterns rather than the basics of using AWS.
