• How do I scale my app up and down?

From an ops or DevOps point of view, you will learn about ways to deploy Cloud Foundry on your local machine, AWS, and OpenStack.

We’ll also cover how Cloud Foundry solves issues of portability, scalability, reliability and extensibility.

Key take-aways:

• Architectural constraints for applications in the world of PaaS
• How to deploy Cloud Foundry on a local machine, AWS and OpenStack in 3 steps
• Live demo of deploying an app in less than 30 seconds
