Cloud Foundry Day Europe 2024

First-class support for Cloud Native Buildpacks is coming to Cloud Foundry. In this talk I want to give an overview on how Cloud Native Buildpacks work and how we brought them to Cloud Foundry. This includes the current state, challenges we faced, (architectural) decisions we took and an overview of the overall process. We hope to spread the word regarding Cloud Native Buildpacks and invite curious minds to give it a try on Cloud Foundry (once fully available).

Bosh is the solid technology that deploys Cloud Foundry on virtual machines for over a decade, and it can also deploy any cloud software, provided that a Bosh release exists for that software. In a previous talk we’ve demystified the process of authoring a Bosh release. Here our story started when we wanted to build a modern, open source, Bosh release for running Kubernetes, based on ContainerD. And running ContainerD is not an easy one, because Bosh has to work hand-in-hand with SystemD. This lighting talk is about the story of the project, the challenges we’ve faced, the solutions we’ve come up with, and we’ll share our experience actually writing a Bosh release for running nice, clustered, cloud software.

The Stratos UI for Cloud Foundry is the best way to give your developers a friendly Interface to work with the Cloud Foundry workflow. FiveTwenty, AnyNines, and others are maintaining and improving the Open Source Cloud Foundry’s premier interface! Come to hear the updates, plans, and provide your feedback!

Join the Cloud Foundry Weekly crew as we are thrilled to host an incredible real-world Cloud Foundry User, Juergen Sussner (Datev). We are also delighted to host Amelia Downs (a leading Cloud Foundry contributor) and promote conversation between our Cloud Foundry Users and Contributors. They'll share practical insights on how their organizations run their businesses with Cloud Foundry. We're excited to close out the show by demonstrating how the Cloud Foundry contributor’s work is used in the real world and how Cloud Foundry drives your everyday lives.
