Agenda

Presentation๏ Motivators and Use Cases๏ Technical overview

PaaS Demo๏ Create service and link to runtime artifact repository๏ Upload application๏ Demonstrate multi-tenancy๏ Scale instances

**

Why Do You Cloud?๏ Obtain the right tool bits๏ Access a pre-built platform๏ Rely on embedded compliance, governance, and security

policies

๏ Creative experimentation ๏ Spin up and down on demand๏ Lower startup cost

๏ Meet business demand๏ Fulfill dynamic and spiky usage requirements ๏ Optimize Spend

**

Why Do You PaaS?

๏ Ready to DevOps๏ Hug a virtual server (or container)๏ Configure a run-time environment๏ Provision software development lifecycle repos and tools

๏ Build better software and accelerate software delivery๏ Offer a pre-built platform to development teams๏ No QoS worries

What is a Java PaaS?

3 Dimensions

๏ Run-time Framework๏ Application, Service, and API Platform๏ Development Environment

*

What is Apache Stratos ?

● A Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) Framework from Apache Community

● Initially developed and maintained by WSO2

● Donated to Apache Software Foundation

● Evolved within the Apache Community for nearly a year

● Significantly re-architected and improved in Apache

● Graduated to an Apache TLP last month (May 2014)

Apache Stratos Use Cases

๏ Deploy on all major cloud infrastructures

๏ Provision and Scale Middleware Cartridges๏ Run Apache Tomcat, PHP, and MySQL applications๏ Host services, APIs, and integration flows๏ .NET support in the works

๏ Share platform across multiple teams, departments, channels

๏ Setup Once and Take an Automation Break๏ Configure scale and burst policies

*

Deploy on Your IaaS

**

Provision and Scale Your App

Differentiator: Real Time Event Bus

**

Multi-Tenancy Models [measure your density]๏ Container MT

- virtual Machine, LXC, Docker๏ In-container MT

- within VM/LXC/Docker tenancy

What is the MT advantage?๏ Optimizing resource utilization๏ Reduce dedicated resource allocation

Share platform across multiple teams, departments, channels

Apache Stratos L1 Deployment Architecture for Docker based Cartridges

**

Stratos Architecture with Docker Support

**

What is it?๏ Scaling algorithm can use multiple factors. such as

- Load average of the instance- Memory consumption of the instance- In-flight request count in LB

Setup Once and Take an Automation Break

**

What is unique about Stratos๏ Cartridge based LB model๏ Can bring any third-party LB

- HAProxy, nginx, AWS ELB- As easy as plugging into LB extension API

Scalable and Dynamic Load Balancing..

**

What are the smart policies?๏ Auto scaling๏ Deployment

Auto scaling policy๏ Define thresholds values pertaining scale up/down

decision ๏ Auto Scaler refer this policy๏ Defined by DevOps

Deployment policy๏ Defined how and where to spawn cartridge instances๏ Defined min and max instances in a selected service

cluster๏ Defined by DevOps based on deployment patterns

Smart Policies

**

What are the advantages?๏ Make DevOps life easy๏ Low TCO, and higher utilization existing dedicated

resources

Cloud Bursting...

๏ Apache Stratos next release is mainly into- Docker based cartridge support- integration with CoreOS- integration with Kubernetes- integration with flannel- integration with discovery service and build in

docker registry support

๏ Support docker top of VM- provide two level of scalability- support for integrated with any existing IaaS- any public, private cloud support which can run

docker host VM

Apache Stratos 4.1 - Docker support.
