Deploying Cloud Foundry with cf-deployment

Page last updated:

This topic describes how to deploy Cloud Foundry using cf-deployment. For more information about cf-deployment, see the cf-deployment repository on GitHub.

cf-deployment relies on individual component releases and prioritizes the following:

• Readability for a human operator: cf-deployment includes only necessary configuration
• Security and production-readiness by default
• Native use of Diego and lack of support for Droplet Execution Agents

Prepare Your Environment

Before deploying Cloud Foundry with cf-deployment, you must prepare your environment and deploy a BOSH Director. The procedures to do this vary depending on your IaaS.

Select the topic specific to your IaaS:

• Deploying BOSH on AWS
• Deploying BOSH on GCP
• Deploying BOSH on Azure
• Deploying BOSH on vSphere
• Deploying BOSH on OpenStack

Note: The topics for preparing your environment use the bosh-bootloader tool. bosh-bootloader is currently compatible with GCP, AWS, Microsoft Azure, VMware vSphere and OpenStack.

Deploy Cloud Foundry

After preparing your environment and deploying a BOSH Director, continue to the Deploying Cloud Foundry topic.
