Notes

  • stacks is a prebuilt root file system (rootfs) that supports a specific operating system (https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/devguide/deploy-apps/stacks.html)

    e.g. cflinuxfs3: The Linux cflinuxfs3 stack is derived from Ubuntu Bionic 18.04.

  • uses buildpacks to support different languages/run-times (based on heroku buildpack scheme). buildpacks are layered on top of stacks
  • supports Deploy an App with Docker
  • Restaging your app stops your app and restages it, by compiling a new droplet and starting it.
  • Task: A task is an app or script whose code is included as part of a deployed app, but runs independently in its own container.
