Running Apache Usergrid Open Source BaaS on Cloud Foundry
summary
Apache Usergrid runs a Tomcat app fronting a single multi-tenant Cassandra cluster with Elasticsearch for indexing, claiming up to 50,000 requests per second and handling thousands to tens of thousands RPS in practice. Deployment uses a CF tile and service broker, Docker initially and planned BOSH releases for Cassandra and Elasticsearch, with a prototype built in two days and app provisioning under a day. Writes go to Cassandra and a queue then to Elasticsearch, providing eventual consistency via asynchronous Elasticsearch indexing and CF HA and scaling.
