This repo contains a sample Spring Boot app and steps to deploy the app to Pivotal Web Services
- Pivotal Web service account (free trial available)
- Cloud Foundry Command Line Interface (Download from https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cli#downloads )
- Do a help command to check installation
$cf help
- Clone the sample app repo
$git clone https://github.com/cloudfoundry-samples/cf-sample-app-spring.git
- Navigate to the app directory
$cd cf-sample-app-spring
- Login to Pivotal Web Service (PWS)
$cf login -a https://api.run.pivotal.io
-
Enter your PWS account user name and password to authenticate
-
Push code to PWS
$cf push

- Connect a Database to the application. We use ElephantSQL
$cf marketplace -s elephantsql
Screenshot:
$cf create-service elephantsql turtle cf-spring-db
$cf bind-service cf-spring cf-spring-db
# Restart the app
$cf restart cf-spring
# Verify the new service is bound to the app
$cf services
Screenshot:
- Scaling the app horizontally adds or removes app instances. Adding more instances allows the application to handle increased traffic and demand.
# Increase the number of app instances from one to two
$cf scale cf-spring -i 2
# Check the status of the app and verify there are two instances running
$cf app cf-spring
- Scaling the app vertically changes the disk space limit or memory limit for each app instance
# Increase the memory limit for each app instance
$cf scale cf-spring -m 1G
# Increase the disk limit for each app instance
$cf scale cf-spring -k 512M
# Need to unbind a service before deletion
$cf unbind-service cf-spring cf-spring-db
$cf delete-service cf-spring-db
# Delete the application by using delete command. -r deletes all routes associated with the app
$cf delete cf-spring -r
