The Rocket Science of Deploying Cloud Foundry in Multi-Cloud Environments
summary
Swisscom runs one Cloud Foundry stretched across three availability zones (three data centers) using BOSH multi-CPI to mix OpenStack, VMware and potentially public clouds, and automates upgrades and migrations with Concourse pipelines. Core facts: a 9‑node Consul cluster, one Concourse worker per AZ with a central ATC, blobs on external S3 (ECS), and measured inter‑site latency ~2 ms. The setup lets operators replace a whole zone live and customers generally do not notice downtime.
