Keynote: Communication as a Service with Cloud Foundry
summary
Huawei runs an internal PaaS called mushroom cloud based on Cloud Foundry with 4,800+ apps deployed and 35 registered users. Telecom functions become a hybrid CaaS: a cloud API layer plus on‑prem telecom backend, surfaced via a Cloud Foundry service broker that creates and monitors service instances. Requirements include millisecond application‑level monitoring, autoscaling and support for many concurrent deploys (target 300–400 containers per minute). Live demos show voice bridging and camera scenarios where a phone can call API to control camera (demo at booth 108).
