Eclipse Right Through (RT) the Clouds

I prepared a Virtual Box image (accessible also here) that contains a tutorial on how to:

• extend Cloud Foundry with a new framework
• replace Tomcat with Virgo
• add auto-detect code in VMC
• add download/packaging code
• use Cloud Foundry services
• parse JSON from environment variables
• connect to MySQL via JDBC
• share Cloud Foundry services between applications
• use Eclipse Link JPA
• programatically initialize Data Source

You will need:

• 10GB of disk space
• 4GB memory
• Virtual Box
• 7-Zip
