Cloud Controller in VMware Tanzu Application Service for VMs (TAS for VMs) provides you with REST API endpoints to access the system. Cloud Controller maintains a database with tables for orgs, spaces, services, user roles, and more.

Diego Auction

The Cloud Controller uses the Diego Auction to balance application processes over the Diego Cells in a TAS for VMs installation.

Database (CC_DB)

The Cloud Controller database has been tested with MySQL.

Blobstore

To stage and run apps, TAS for VMs manages and stores app source code and other files in an S3-compatible blobstore.

Please see Cloud Controller blobstore for information.

    DB_CONNECTION="mysql2://root:password@localhost:3306/ccng" rspec
