Business-Track breakout session presented by Paul Arnautoff, Director of Business Development at AppDirect.
Two years ago, Pivotal Cloud Foundry partnered with AppDirect to launch a Services Marketplace to make it easier for Developers to find, buy and use the tools they need to build cloud software. With the recent development of Pivotal's V2 Service Broker, the AppDirect services catalog is now available through not only Pivotal Web Services, but also any private or public deployment of Cloud Foundry anywhere. In this discussion, Paul Arnautoff will highlight how AppDirect integrated with the CF Service Broker and is extending the consumption of 3rd party services across a growing network of PaaS marketplaces as well as how ISVs can integrate once with the services catalog to distribute through any Cloud Foundry deployment.

The Rise of IDC’s 3rd Platform
About the 3rd Platform
Combination of Mobile, Cloud, Big Data and Social will
enable the development of entirely new sets of
services.
2014-2017, IT spending by groups outside of IT
departments will grow at over 6% per year
Cloud spending will grow 25%, reaching over $100
billion. Over 75% of that spending will be public cloud.
40–50% of the growth in 3rd Platform spending will
come from cannibalization of 2nd Platform offerings.
6. Cloud Foundry Summit 2014

consumed, it has changed the way we build applications

What does all of this mean?
Key Disrupting Factors
As the 3rd platform
lowers the cost of
delivery and integration,
focused single use
‘services’ will proliferate.
Open Source Software is now
the leading product in many
markets including:
DB
PaaS
IaaS
Cloud platforms enable rapid
scale
The ‘APIification’ allows it all to
be stitched together
Low start up costs, rapid ability
to scale and the means for
customers to easily consume
services makes for the ideal
environment for service
proliferation.
9. Cloud Foundry Summit 2014
In fact, purpose-built cloud application development continues to
accelerate at incredible rates
The Number of Cloud Applications available today
stands at 5000.
IDC projects a 10x increase in the next 4 years,
which means 50,000+ single use and vertical
specific applications.

Cloud Foundry Summit 2014
3rd Party Services are an essential
component to the Cloud Foundry
experience
Pivotal desired an easier way to
connect their users with Services:
“The Cloud Foundry Marketplace powered by
AppDirect enables developers to add leading 3rd
party services to their apps with a single click.
AppDirect provides partners a simplified
distribution channel on our hosted service today,
and in the future on our open source and
commercial on-premise distributions”

21. Binding through AppDirect performs the last mile action required
to use the service with your Cloud Foundry application
Cloud Foundry Summit 2014
1. Customers use either the command line tool or the catalog through AppDirect’s API to purchase an addon with their PaaS account.
2. AppDirect uses the user’s PaaS identity information to provision a new account with the third-party ISV that corresponds with their PaaS instance.
3. To bind an service to the user’s app within your PaaS console, AppDirect sends a request to the ISV to create a service within the new account and attach it’s environmental
variables to the corresponding app instance. For example, a user may create a new Database within their newly provisioned MongoLabs account and bind the database to their app
within your PaaS console.
