The Japan Cloud Foundry Group, a user group in Japan, has been carrying a project named "Cloud Foundry 100-day Challenge" ("Cloud Foundry 100-nichi gyou" in Japanese, "gyou" originally means a kind of discipline or training in Buddhism). It is an activity to make 100 open source apps run on Cloud Foundry (CF, hereafter), one app per day. The main objectives of this project are as follows: 1) Let application developers know about the features of CF; 2) Find essential points to make a variety of apps run on CF; 3) Develop application developers' requirements to improve CF, 4) Collaborate OSS developers to make their apps "CF-ready". At the present moment (9 Sep), we've finished 57 apps. In this talk, I will share various (somewhat unarranged) experiences and knowledge got from the project.
Cloud Foundry is already known as a platform that supports Microservice Architectures. In this talk I will cover how new, edge features such as Context Path Routing and Wildcard Routing make it even easier for developers to deploy and maintain Microservice applications on Cloud Foundry. These features are new enough that they are not widely known so many developers are using unnecessary hacks or custom routing layers to do thing like having multiple apps live under the same route. Because some of these features are not yet CLI supported, I will also cover how developers can access these powerful new features through interacting with the Cloud Foundry API.

Cloud Foundry has successfully enabled developers and ops to streamline the workflow of building and deploying applications. But why stop there? Using Cloud Foundry’s open source tools alongside Pivotal’s agile methodologies, Designer Kimberly Eberz and Engineer Urvashi Reddy will share how designers and developers can do the same. The speakers will tell a success story of pairing while creating an application from concept to completion.
Cloud Foundry empowers users by abstracting the complexities of infrastructure and allowing them to focus on the product and the code. Working in an environment where innovation takes priority makes pairing between designers and developers possible. This collaborative approach solves the problems that come with “throwing design over the fence.” What follows is a shared understanding of user needs, technical constraints, and requirements.
Kimberly Eberz is a Product Designer at Pivotal Cloud Foundry. She is passionate about designing for technical users with efficient, and straightforward products through user research and prototyping.
Urvashi Reddy is a Software Engineer at Pivotal. In the past year she's worked at Pivotal's Dublin office to do a rotation on the Cloud Foundry Container Runtime team. This team maintains the Kubernetes BOSH release. Prior to that, she was the anchor for the Dedicated MySQL team and... Read More →
