Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Foundry

IBM Cloud Foundry is the primary container deployment technology we utilize for our cloud product offerings. All our cloud applications are deployed and running with it. IBM Cloud Foundry simplifies the processes for our development and operations team, by providing a standardized packaging and deployment methodology, as well as integrating into the overall toolchain, from development to final deployment.
  • Simplicity - the command line tool provided can get you up and running within minutes.
  • Resourceful - IBM Cloud Foundry is built on top of the open source Cloud Foundry technology, so any resources you find online about Cloud Foundry generally can be applied.
  • Feature rich - provides all the necessary features for a cloud based platform, such as auto-scaling, 0 downtime deployment.
  • Documentation - most of the time, you will be referring to the open source Cloud Foundry's documentation instead.
  • Certificate management - this part is custom to IBM Cloud Foundry, and it does not have official APIs for you to manage SSL certificates for the various domains you might have.
  • Simplify deployment processes means we can bring new updates to market easier and faster.
  • Zero downtime means improved customer experience and satisfaction.
