Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for deploying and using a light-weight cloud application platform. In one aspect, a method includes providing a deployment tool configured to deploy a light-weight cloud application platform in an execution environment in response to a user command that specifies the environment, and to create one or more instances of a cloud application executing on the light-weight cloud application platform in response to a user command that specifies a container image that includes the application. The deployment tool receives a first user command that specifies the execution environment. In response, the deployment tool deploys components of the light-weight cloud application platform, including a scheduling subsystem and a routing subsystem. The deployment tool receives a second user command that specifies a location of the container image. In response, instances of the cloud application are deployed without receiving further user commands.
