Micro Foundry makes the cloud Cloud offline-capable

Micro Foundry makes the cloud Cloud offline-capable VMware provides with Micro Cloud Foundry, an offline version of its Platform as a Service (PaaS), Cloud Foundry is available. The system allows developers including Spring-based Java apps, Ruby on Rails applications or on a number of other languages ​​and service-building applications like light as a cloud application can provide, as it is for normal web applications the case. With micro Cloud Foundry is a corresponding cloud environment can now also set up locally so developers can build their applications offline.
Technically, the system provides the classical Cloud Foundry as a virtual machine (based on a 64-bit Ubuntu). This way can the configuration burden is kept low, which should ultimately reduce the time required for the development of an app for cloud environments. In addition, developers will be able to easily test their applications offline, before she transferred to the cloud. The latter is readily possible, since the virtual machine is fully compatible with the Cloud Foundry.
Currently the system supports Spring for Java, Ruby on Rails and Sinatra, Node.js, Grails and other JVM-based frameworks, including La Scala and lift the MongoDB, MySQL and rediscount Application Services. Other services are provided vFabric in future versions, so VMware.
Prerequisite for the operation of the micro Cloud Foundry on Windows and Linux is an installed VMware player or workstation WMware, will come with Mac OS X with VMware Fusion. In addition, a registration for the Cloud Foundry is necessary to be able to download the Micro Cloud Foundry.
