Abstract

Cloud Foundry platform system comprising at least: a Cloud controller, a Service Broker, a Service Backend constituted by several Service instances, each linked to at least one Application, in a Droplet Execution Agent pool (DEA pool), a Graphic User Interface (GUI) and a platform diagnostic coupled with probes providing information on the recourses status of the system wherein the hardware and software arrangement forming the Graphic User Interface comprising a set of personalized activated interface cellules which can be manipulated by the user, and each can generate after their activation a piece of specific instruction, each specific instructions will be combined by the Graphic User Interface and transited to the Cloud controller using a routine and according to the resources available determined by the platform diagnostic, in a command, which replace the regular command entered by the user in a Command Line Interface.

Claims

1. A Cloud Foundry platform system comprising at least:

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a Cloud controller,

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a Service Broker,

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a Service Backend constituted by several Service instances, each linked to at least one Application, in a Droplet Execution Agent pool (DEA pool),

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a Graphic User Interface (GUI), and

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a platform diagnostic coupled with probes providing information on the resources status of the system,

wherein the hardware and software arrangement forming the Graphic User Interface comprising a set of personalized activated interface cells which can be manipulated by the user, and each can generate after their activation a piece of specific instruction, each specific instructions will be combined by the Graphic User Interface and transmitted to the Cloud controller using a routine and according to the resources available determined by the platform diagnostic, in a command, which replace the regular command entered by the user in a Command Line Interface, and

wherein the Service Broker is linked to an autoscaler application and uses the information on the resources status provided by the probes of the platform diagnostic, to automatically scale a specific application according to the resources available, while following user'"'"'s chosen parameters corresponding to the manipulated personalized activated interface cells.

2. Cloud Foundry platform system according claim 1, wherein the Cloud controller is configured to be the Application Program Interface (API) of the Cloud Foundry platform system, which interpret the transmitted command by the hardware and software arrangement forming the Graphic User Interface.

3. A Cloud Foundry platform system, comprising at least:

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a Cloud controller;

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a Service Broker;

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a Service Backend constituted by several Service instances, each linked to at least one Application, in a Droplet Execution Agent pool (DEA pool);

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a Graphic User Interface (GUI); and

a hardware and software arrangement comprising at least one processor and a memory provided with software, the processor being able to execute software stored in the memory to form a platform diagnostic coupled with probes providing information on the resources status of the system,

wherein the hardware and software arrangement forming the Graphic User Interface comprising a set of personalized activated interface cells which can be manipulated by the user, and each can generate after their activation a piece of specific instruction, each specific instructions will be combined by the Graphic User Interface and transmitted to the Cloud controller using a routine and according to the resources available determined by the platform diagnostic, in a command, which replace the regular command entered by the user in a Command Line Interface,

wherein the Cloud controller is configured to be the Application Program Interface (API) of the Cloud Foundry platform system, which interpret the transmitted command by the hardware and software arrangement forming the Graphic User Interface, and

wherein the hardware and software arrangement forming the Graphic User Interface allows creating a service instance provided with specific configuration parameters to the API of the cloud foundry.

4. Cloud Foundry platform system according claim 3, wherein the API under the parameters of the service instance provided by the GUI, provision the instance and create a binding to the service broker.
