Rekan-rekan, ini pernyataan menarik dari Patrick, dan saya kaget, ternyata beliau juga ikutan milis ini :)

semoga berguna..

yah saya sedang coba link OpenStack dan CloudFoundry.

NB: kita sepertinya akan roadshow 4 kota nih untuk promosi ini OS dan CF.

Hi Frans, Bisa saya bantu?

I'm not sure what your question is: my perspective on Cloud Foundry and OpenStack has not changed since last year: "let a thousand clouds bloom!"
http://wordpress.chanezon.com/?p=1729

John from AppFog and Diane from ActiveState expressed really well how Cloud Foundry helps them address their customer's requirements, and what value there is in having a common ecosystem around that codebase.

Thanks to PistonCloud's BOSH OpenStack CPI https://github.com/piston/openstack-bosh-cpi, Cloud Foundry and OpenStack are now like peanut butter and jelly, letting developers build a private or public PaaS based 100% on open source software.

I find the the hybrid cloud possibilities opened up by standardizing on the Cloud Foundry APIs that John outlines in his mail, and that AppFog implements today super promising, and expect a lot of innovation in that space in the next few years.

Listing Cloud Foundry forks and what developers are doing with it to solve their specific needs will be a fun project: I hear about a lot of innovation where developers fork specific parts of it to add value or solve a specific problem.

What Rakuten did with Fluentd to persist logs is a good example 
The stackato-router that ActiveState announced last week, with websocket and soon SPDY support http://www.activestate.com/blog/2012/09/rocking-it-stackato-and-websockets is another great example of the kind of innovation that a bazaar style open source project can generate.

I'd recommend subscribing to the vcap-dev mailing list, where a lot of the action around the codebase is.

Last, on the community side, I saw that you created a cloudfoundry-id group: Terima kasih for that!

Although my Bahasa is very limited, I applied to the group and will rely on Google Translate to understand what people are posting about and try answering in english.
Our team organized events in China last year, in India this year, I hope we'll do something in SE Asia in 2013: I'll keep you in the loop when we organize it.

I'd like to conclude on a Bob Dylan, quote, from "The Times They Are A-Changin'", that I think applies very well to the current move from IaaS to PaaS.

"Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'."

The waters of complexity are rising, so you better start swimmin' to a higher level of abstraction that PaaS provides you:-)

thx Peter. awesome explaination

i am working to list the CF cloud implementation, and seek which one
become opensource again after modification (fork), or make it
propietary.

esp one of my friend that sell cloud services here just do roadshow
today. promoting cloud for startup (my test it is using stackato) with
Microsoft that promoting Azure.



I love have a single CF which the edition can run on OpenStack. (esp
VMWare is Sponsor for OpenStack summit also -- strange what is the
positioning between vsphere and openstack --).


i think the variety of CF and OpenStack, will bring more value to both
community, esp I try to manage both community.


still waiting Patrick Chanezone comment about this, because he is
DIrector of Developer Relations in VMWare that spoke CloudFoundry
