• Q/A

3. What is Pivotal Cloud Foundry?

4. Cloud Foundry Haiku
“Here is my source code
Run it on the cloud for me
I do not care how”
-Onsi Fakhouri

5. Pivotal Cloud Foundry is…
• Based on Cloud Foundry – the leading Open Source
Platform-as-a-service
• Enterprise-ready, cloud-native
• Language , framework and IaaS agnostic
• Manages VMs and containers
• Orchestrates applications and data services
• Horizontal ,vertical and auto scaling

6. Cloud Foundry Services Haiku
“Here is my (legacy/non-cloud-native) data service
Run it on the cloud for me
I do not care how”

7. Running MongoDB
on
Pivotal Cloud Foundry

8. Let’s go through some definitions
• Service Broker – is the component of the service that implements the
service broker API
• Service Broker API – The API that must be implemented to integrate a
service with Cloud Foundry
• Cloud Controller – provides the REST API endpoints for clients to access
the system, and maintains a database (CCDB) with tables for orgs, spaces,
services, user roles, etc.
• Router – routes the traffic coming into Cloud Foundry to the appropriate
component

9. Bosh 2.0
• Bosh 2.0 – Cloud Foundry orchestration layer that does
• Advanced real-time dynamic provisioning and deployment of software
over hundred's of VM’s
• Release engineering
• Deployment
• Lifecycle management
• Monitoring
• Failure recovery
• Software updates with zero-to-minimal downtime
• Which means – legacy, NoSQL and non-cloud native databases, like
MongoDB can now run on Pivotal Cloud Foundry

10. Why On Demand Dynamic Provisioning?
- Leverages Bosh 2.0 to dynamically provision a
MongoDB-Cluster on demand
- Leverages Bosh Links by making the Bosh Director*
responsible for IP management
*Core orchestrating component of Bosh, controlling
the VM creation, deployment, other s/w and lifecycle events

The On-Demand Service Broker Workflow

12. MongoDB - On Demand Service as
a Pivotal Cloud FoundryTile
- Pivotal Cloud Foundry / Bosh 2.0 to leverage
on-demand dynamic service provisioning
+
- MongoDb Enterprise Ops Manager for the cluster
configuration and monitoring capabilities

13. MongoDB - On Demand Service as
a Pivotal Cloud FoundryTile
- Provision the IAAS resources during service
instance creation
- Everything packaged into a “tile” that runs on
Pivotal Cloud Foundry on any IAAS
