Kubernetes has revolutionized the management of containerized applications, but what about non-Kubernetes resources? Can Kubernetes extend its capabilities to encompass those as well? Cloudify, known for its ability to fit into highly distributed and heterogeneous environments, is making a significant stride in this direction with the release of Cloudify 7. In this blog, we explore how Cloudify brings its powerful capabilities natively into the Kubernetes ecosystem.

In this blog, we’ll run through the new features of Cloudify’s VS Code extension and how developers can use it to write better and more consistent blueprints. This will ultimately improve the overall user experience. VS Code is a cross-platform text editor created by Microsoft. Developers can use VS Code as an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for just about any language. Part of VS Code’s appeal is in the ease of developing extensions, which can expand its applications.

In my previous article, I provided an example of using Cloudify’s native REST plugin to send a policy evaluation request to an Open Policy Agent (OPA) service. While dispatching requests to an upstream OPA endpoint is a great way to integrate policy enforcement throughout an environment blueprint, Cloudify has also been working toward native integration of OPA throughout our ecosystem.

Writing a blueprint might be one of the hardest tasks for new or experienced users, so why would you punish yourself by writing a blueprint the old way? Cloudify’s cfy-lint tool makes writing new blueprints or improving existing ones easier. In this article, I’ll explain some of the errors cfy-lint can identify and how to fix errors automatically.

During MWC 2019, we first announced project Spire. Project Spire was the codename for our Cloudify edge strategy. It was designed primarily for handling orchestration at extreme scale (10k sites, x millions of devices). The design was based on a unique distributed orchestration architecture as could be seen in the diagram below.

In 2021, Cloudify introduced the Agile-First approach to 5G network orchestration, creating a bridge between the Telco and DevOps worlds. In those previous POCs, Cloudify proved to be a platform built to support agile service delivery and multiple interfaces that allow multi-vendor flexible solution integration. Today, Cloudify takes the next step to provide a vendor-agnostic solution in 5G and the public cloud.

In this blog, we describe how Cloudify, AWS, Intel, Proto, and Mavenir orchestrate the deployment of 5G core network as well as deploying applications that utilize these 5G services. At MWC 2022, we showcased the intend-based orchestration demonstrating that SLA based KPI can be used to place a workload anywhere in the cloud continuum, using AWS EKS for workload in Region, LocalZone, and Outposts.

The following blog was written together with Petar Torre, Solutions Architect at Intel. This blog describes how Cloudify automates the deployment and monitoring of Machine Learning systems, by orchestrating an Intel-optimized TensorFlow workload running inference with a pre-trained ResNet-50 model from the Intel Model Zoo. In a nutshell, a container running a Jupyter Notebook with the Intel optimized TensorFlow model is scheduled as a Kubernetes pod on K3S on AWS EC2.

If you are reading this, you’re likely familiar with Azure’s cloud solution advantages. Now think how powerful it would be if you could tie them together with the enhancements of the Cloudify platform. You’ll be able to create one great Azure deployment automation solution. It would take advantage of everything you love about Azure while not getting in the way when you move your workloads between private, public, and hybrid clouds.

Many web-scale companies such as Spotify, AirBand, and Twillio are facing the speed paradox:“The faster you grow, the more fragmented and complex your software ecosystem becomes. And then everything slows down again.” To deal with that challenge, they chose to develop their own internal development platform aimed specifically at increasing their development productivity by taking a more opinionated approach in which developers get to use infrastructure resources. Spotify backstage is an open-source project led by Spotify that provides a set of tools and a framework.

The motivation behind the Cloudify and Ansible integration follows the logic of an automation-first approach, allowing users to leverage existing Ansible playbooks to integrate into Cloudify rather than convert into a Cloudify format. Learn all about Ansible and how to turbo charge this tool for best possible results using Cloudify.

Cloudify is an Open Source platform featuring a powerful service composition engine with out-of-the-box integrations for all cloud environments and existing toolchains. Manage heterogeneous cloud environments at scale, and bridge the gap between DevOps and IT-SM processes.
Organizations scaling their cloud operations are realizing that current DevOps tooling is slowing them down significantly. Cloudify removes such blockers by integrating and enriching existing automation and DevOps tools while keeping the infrastructure future-proof, featuring limitless integration to API-based DevOps tools and built-in support for cloud native services.
Introducing a Unique Environment as a Service (EaaS) Technology:
- Consistent Management: Break automation silos using an ‘orchestrator of orchestrator’ approach and manage all platforms (Kubernetes, Ansible, AWS Cloud Formation, Azure ARM, Terraform, etc.) from one place for incredible service orchestration.
- Day-2 Automation: Attain seamless day-2 automation. With Cloudify, automations run faster, error-free and optimized for costs. Cloudify allows you to apply auto updates, scaling, and healing and now even mass upgrades and configuration changes!
- Cost Optimization: Control spiraling costs by employing end-to-end modeling of the entire infrastructure; enabling cost-saving policies which include the decommissioning of formerly complex services and resources.
- Reduced Deployment Time: Bring infrastructure, networking and security into reusable and ‘templatized’ environments and allow deployment of a variety of tasks in hours rather than weeks for applications that are running on similar configurations.
- Self-Serve Experience: Deliver frictionless services to your end users with a highly customizable self service portal. Cloudify’s multi-tenant catalog and portal framework delivers an easy ‘app-store’ experience for environments, apps, service-setup and management.
- Governance & Compliance: Embed regulatory compliance & security into the workflow: Streamline security settings and auditing setup across platforms and services. Enable automatic setup of environments with proper permissions, resource limitations, and more.
