Cover with ImageDo you remember your first business trip to Las Vegas? I do.



bution

Software dominates how we interact with the world.



bution

Enterprises struggle to deliver software people love. Why?

It’s hard to experiment and

quickly incorporate what we learn.

We’re stuck with incomplete or

outdated application platforms.

Hostile processes and procedures

make it painful to ship software.

Organization silos have competing

priorities.



bution

Not EVERYONE is struggling.

Pivotal Cloud FoundryThe platform that helps you ship and run all types of

modern apps in a consistent way, anywhere you want.

Operator goals



bution

Your goal

Get new technology installed quickly, consistently.

Your challenges

Complex prerequisites, immature tooling.VMworld 2017 Content: Not fo


bution

PCF setup is straightforward.

All you need is an IaaS.

Cloud provider interfaces for each IaaS

Packaged with an embedded OS

Linux and Windows stemcells available

Servers and services created automatically

No wild collection of products to integrate

Hours to get running, not days or weeksVMworld 2017 Content: Not fo


bution

Your goal

Keep the environment secure and up-to-date.

Your challenges

Security processes built to be reactionary, not proactive. Patching complex stacks is an exercise in triaging and

scheduling.



bution

PCF helps you reduce risk by going faster.

Secure defaults, no-downtime

patching.

Uses an immutable infrastructure model

80+ hardening configurations for base image

Fully encrypted network, CredHub for keys

Secure-by-default container runtime

Ubiquitous policy enforcement

Monitoring and scanning integration

Control of software supply chain with buildpacks

Constant, full-stack patching



bution

Your goal

Make sure the platform stays online at all times.

Your challenges

Platforms have many points of failure, and it’s hard to continuously upgrade core components.



bution

PCF is built with resilience in mind.

Highly available architecture,

canary upgrades.

Four layers of high availability built in

Container fails? PCF creates another

Server process fails? PCF restarts it

Host VM fails? PCF deletes and recreates

AZ fails? Traffic goes to secondary site

Upgrade each layer with no downtime using fully-tested BOSH releases

Tested at silly scale, for sustained periods



bution

Your goal

Offer a relevant service catalog to developers.

Your challenges

Curating products and creating hardened build templates fails to keep up with dev demand.



bution

PCF service broker model is operator friendly.

Define the service catalog, and

get consistent, managed

services.

Service broker API offers: catalog management, provisioning, binding, unbinding, de-provisioning

Can have brokered, managed, on-demand services

Pivotal offers 50+ partner offerings

Cloud IaaS provider brokers bring best-of-breed capabilities to developersVMworld 2017 Content: N

DEMONSTRATION

bution

Your goal

Isolate tenants and workloads.

Your challenges

Unique environments create maintenance headaches, but co-location of workloads adds risk.



bution

PCF offers built in multi-tenancy, isolation

Split workloads however you

want, introduce

microsegmentation via the

network.

Native support for orgs, spaces with role-based access controls and quotas

Backing services can be shared or single tenant

Isolation Segments create separate compute and network pools

Automated upgrades means you can more easily manage multiple Foundations VMworld 2017 Content: N

Developer goals



bution

Your goal

Use modern dev tools and frameworks.

Your challenges

Ops doesn’t want to set up and maintain runtimes for multiple stacks, and getting sandboxes is near

impossible.



bution

PCF supports all major languages and runtimes.

Built-in support, but extensible

for edge cases.

Buildpacks for Java, .NET Core, .NET Framework, Ruby, Node.js, Go, Python, PHP

Windows or Linux hosts

Deploy apps as Docker images

Platform builds container, or you provide one

Additional support for Spring Boot apps

All apps get same auto-scaling, log aggregation, metrics collection behavior



bution

Your goal

Use a wide assortment of app types to solve business needs.

Your challenges

Platforms either rigidly support one type of app, or are so generic that they provide no guardrails for any type of

app.



bution

PCF runs all sorts of apps, in one place.

Modern or legacy, stateless or

stateful. Come one, come all.

Ideal for horizontally scaled web applications

Deploy Internet-facing APIs

Run “headless” background jobs

Execute one-off tasks

Run stream processing apps

Use Volume Services for stateful file system

Leverage backing services for off-box cache, databases, messaging engines



bution

Your goal

Ship software early and often.

Your challenges

Deploying software within the enterprise requires a sadistic maze of processes and stakeholders with

differing priorities.



bution

PCF makes deployment boring.

The platform handles everything

from runtimes to routing.

cf push makes it simple:Finds hostsConfigures runtimeInstalls and configures middlewareRetrieves code dependenciesCreates and stores app packageConfigures dependent servicesDeploys containers to hostsLoad environment variablesConfigures load balancer, firewallsStarts service monitoringConfigures log collection

Bring your own CI/CD tools or use Concourse



bution


DEMONSTRATION

Push a Spring Boot application



bution

Your goal

Configure apps in a self-service fashion.

Your challenges

The configuration surface is too wide, or too locked down to make changes post-deployment.



bution

PCF helps you configure, and re-configure as needed.

Rich controls, but

straightforward UX.

Use CLI, API, or graphical UI to scale apps up or out

Create and configure autoscale policies

Configure logging levels for Spring Boot apps

Add or change user-provided environment variables

Bind or unbind to service instances

Create and manage container-to-container networking policies



bution


DEMONSTRATION

Using Autoscale policies, logging levels,

and container networking



bution

Your goal

Keep MTTR short with targeted troubleshooting.

Your challenges

Logs are strewn everywhere, and everyone’s looking at a different set of facts.



bution

PCF consolidates and correlates logs for troubleshooting.

PCF Metrics brings it all

together.

Application logs extracted from each container and stored centrally

Logs get correlated with host metrics and platform events

Tap into the “firehose” or consume via CLI or PCF Metrics user interface
