PaaS

A middleware platform on premise can be used to host the applications that are developed for the use of the departments in the organization. A cloud middleware platform, on the other hand, can be used to replace the set of middleware platform servers that are deployed for the servers. A cloud middleware platform can be hosted as a public or private cloud for the organization's requirement utilizing the cloud middleware platform's cloud-native attributes. This blog post looks into the Platform, cloud middleware platform, and the Platform as a Service.

A context can be defined as a construct that strictly binds the execution environment. As the WSO2 Carbon Context is a runtime container for your app(s), you gain the benefit of leveraging the Carbon Context runtime API to obtain contextual information about various actors utilizing your web apps and web services. For example, you may want to use registry cache for a particular user or tenant. The Carbon Context allows you to access 5 APIs and has several utility methods. Each time we create something user specific, we create a Carbon Context for that user to store specific things. This is valid for all WSO2 Carbon 3.2.2 based servers.

Load Balancer is a crucial component in scalable architectures. WSO2 Load Balancer not only balances the load across the application instances, but also scales the system automatically to cater the dynamically changing load.

How ecosystem platforms enhance customer acquisition and retention. What platform services, cloud architecture, and technical characteristics are required to deliver a Vertical PaaS and create a rich ecosystem.
