Abstract #1:

In this talk I will introduce you to a set of tools for building cloud-native JVM applications. We will take a look at some of the common patterns for microservice architectures and how to use Cloud Foundry to deploy multiple microservices to the cloud.

We will also dive into a microservices example project of a cloud-native application built using Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. Using this example project, I will show you how to use Cloud Foundry to spin up a microservice cluster using containers. We will then explore what a large multi-container cloud-native application looks like when using self-describing REST APIs that link multiple microservices together.

Abstract #2:

Service Brokers are essential to a thriving Cloud Foundry ecosystem. Altoros has created a Service Broker for Redis Labs Enterprise Cluster (RLEC) which targets Open Source Cloud Foundry running on IBM's Linux On Power. In this talk Renat and Dave will give a brief overview of the Service Broker and explain when to choose the use Open Source version or the Enterprise Supported version of Redis.

Speaker Bio #2: Renat is founder & CEO of Altoros, and Venture Partner at Runa Capital. Renat helps define Altoros’s strategic vision, and its role in Cloud Foundry PaaS ecosystem.
