Built on open technologies:

Bluemix is an open-standards, cloud-based platform for building, running, and managing applications.

How does Bluemix work?Bluemix is underlined by three key open compute technologies: Cloud Foundry, Docker, and OpenStack. It extends each of these with a growing number of services, robust DevOps tooling, integration capabilities, and a seamless developer experience.

Cloud Foundry

6

The industry-leading open PaaS

• Clouds - Public, Private, Open SourceChoice

• Runtimes - node.js, spring, rails, etc.• Services - MongoDB, MySQL, PostgresSQL, etc.

• Decreased time needed to prototypeBenefits of PaaS

• Deploy new code more rapidly• Services can be self-assembled to create integrated apps• Scale applications more elastically• Removes worries of OS and middleware patches

• Development methodologies must adapt to techDisadvantages of PaaS

• Requires dev awareness of web app limitations and best practices

• Control over underlying infrastructure is limited

The Cloud Foundry Foundation

7

Mission statement is to establish and sustain Cloud Foundry as the global industry standard open PaaS technology with a thriving ecosystem

Cloud Foundry Architecture

8

•Platform is abstracted as a set of large-scale distributed services

•Uses Cloud Foundry Bosh to operate the underlying infrastructure from the IaaS provider

•Components are dynamically discoverable and loosely coupled

•Uses a dynamic router to shape and route all traffic and orchestrate load balancing

•Droplet Execution Agents (DEAs) are responsible for the app lifecycle

•Health Manager monitors and maintains application uptime

•Buildpacks detect app runtime and compile source code into executable binaries

Cloud Foundry Services

9

Types of services •Accounts for a SaaS application •Databases on a multi-tenant server •Plans for messaging providers

How it works •When a user adds a service, an instance of that particular service is provisioned •A service broker handles communication between CF and the service itself •Service processes run on Service Nodes or with external as-a-service providers

Services allow users to provision resources on demand

Databases on Cloud Foundry

10

Easily provision, configure, and maintain open source database instances

DBaaS •Easily provision instances •Datastore choice is left to the developer •Multiple SQL and NoSQL options

•Minimal configuration required

Best Practices •Avoid writing to the local file system •Files disappear after app restart • Instances of same app do not share LFS

•Session data should be stored in CF service •Design as if app can be restarted, destroyed, starts at any time
