T-Mobile had trouble scaling up (and then back down) during several big holiday promotion periods it faces each year. In addition, the release cycles were long and complex\u2014with almost 7 months and 72 steps taking to launch the code to production. With traditional development and operations teams working separately, differences among test and production servers made configuration difficult.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Investigating_Cloud_Foundry\"><\/span>Investigating Cloud Foundry<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Seeking ways to speed up deployment and improve scalability and configuration management, T-Mobile turned to Cloud Foundry\u2014at first, to its open-source version. After some time, the company realized it needed expert assistance in onboarding and troubleshooting, as well as in adopting microservices. So, it decided to switch to Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF).<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/cfsummit2017.sched.com\/event\/AJmH\" target=\"_blank\">recent presentation<\/a> revealed how T-Mobile used PCF to rebuild one of its legacy Java-based systems\u2014running on WebLogic\u2014with more than 1,000 functions. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/brendan-aye-12b8962\/\" target=\"_blank\">Brendan Aye<\/a> (Principal Architect for Cloud Foundry), and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/melissa-chapman-9028356\/\" target=\"_blank\">Melissa Chapman<\/a> (Sr. Product Manager at T-Mobile), the platform was seen as a solution to creating a scalable environment.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CF-Summit-2017-T-Mobile-Cloud-Foundry.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CF-Summit-2017-T-Mobile-Cloud-Foundry.png\" alt=\"CF Summit 2017 T-Mobile Cloud Foundry\" width=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-27247\" \/><\/a><small>More than one reason to choose Cloud Foundry (<a href=\"https:\/\/schd.ws\/hosted_files\/cfsummit2017\/e5\/T-Mobile-ZeroTo12Million.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Source<\/a>)<\/small><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Microservices were meant to reverse the dependence on the existing large, monolithic infrastructure.

Having quite a low impact on the whole system, it was a perfect choice to try out a new approach. Though representing a relatively small portion of the legacy app, the function handled 2.5 to 12 million calls per day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adoption_and_results\"><\/span>Adoption and results<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>With onboarding started in May 2016, T-Mobile was able to launch its platform into production early in July that year. By August 2016, 100% of production traffic was moved to Pivotal Cloud Foundry.<\/p>\n<p>The team totally re-built the monolith&#8217;s <code style=\"color: #222222; background-color: #e6e6e6; padding: 1px 2px;\">GetUsage<\/code> function, scaling it up to handle about 40 million calls per day. Whereas, with the old system, the release could take seven months and 72 steps, Cloud Foundry made it possible to reduce the production cycle to just days. In addition, bugs are now got fixed within the same day when they are detected\u2014with zero impact on the system performance.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CF-Summit-2017-T-Mobile-Cloud-Foundry-Melissa-Chapman-v3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CF-Summit-2017-T-Mobile-Cloud-Foundry-Melissa-Chapman-v3.jpg\" alt=\"CF Summit 2017 T-Mobile Cloud Foundry Melissa Chapman v3\" width=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-27273\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;If we were to do this with our traditional infrastructure, it would probably take us seven months.

Some of the PCF tiles (e.g., MySQL and RabbitMQ) did not support such multi-subnet topologies. So, as the Pivotal team was working to update PCF services to support multi-subnetworks, developers at T-Mobile had to perform manual BOSH deployments as a temporary measure to enable Spring Cloud Services.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;We had to actually crack open the tiles, use BOSH releases from them, and deploy them manually with BOSH.\u201d \u2014Brendan Aye, T-Mobile<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;RabbitMQ and MySQL were a must,&#8221; but the tiles for these two applications are <strong>multi-tenant single clusters<\/strong>, which was not going to work well within T-Mobile&#8217;s large production environment. Brendan explained that the so-called &#8220;bad neighbors&#8221; could flood the app with messages and requests, bringing down the entire cluster. Although the RabbitMQ and MySQL tiles were successfully used for Spring Cloud Services (e.g., Hystrix), it was decided not to offer them for actual production workloads.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CF-Summit-2017-T-Mobile-Cloud-Foundry-Technology-Challenges.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CF-Summit-2017-T-Mobile-Cloud-Foundry-Technology-Challenges.png\" alt=\"CF Summit 2017 T-Mobile Cloud Foundry Technology Challenges\" width=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-27254\" \/><\/a><small>The challenges faced while moving away from monolithic development (<a href=\"https:\/\/schd.ws\/hosted_files\/cfsummit2017\/e5\/T-Mobile-ZeroTo12Million.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Source<\/a>)<\/small><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Working with private clouds, the company needed an <strong>on-premises S3 object storage<\/strong>. There was an initial option to use a built-in NFS server, but the system covered only a single instance, so did not meet the requirements. To provide a highly available S3 object storage, the team created BOSH releases for the open-source LeoFS tool and got them up and running across all the three availability zones.<\/p>\n<p>Having multiple data centers, T-Mobile lacked global control over load balancing. So, cross-region load balancing became a customer responsibility.<\/li>\n<p>After shifting to Cloud Foundry and microservices, the rapid increase in app instances caused <strong>compliance concerns<\/strong>. To address them, the company&#8217;s team set up automated provisioning of permissions to the platform. &#8220;We used a tool called <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/vmware-tanzu-labs\/cf-mgmt\" target=\"_blank\">CF Management<\/a> that allows you to use a GitHub repo as a source of permissions for your orgs,&#8221; explained Brendan. &#8220;By doing this, we can leverage all the existing stuff we have in source control, such as pull requests and permissions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CF-Summit-2017-T-Mobile-Cloud-Foundry-Brendan-Aye-v2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CF-Summit-2017-T-Mobile-Cloud-Foundry-Brendan-Aye-v2.jpg\" alt=\"CF Summit 2017 T-Mobile Cloud Foundry Brendan Aye v2\" width=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-27259\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;It&#8217;s very easy to see who approves something, when they approved it, and what&#8217;s changed.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u2014Brendan Aye, T-Mobile<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Brendan and Melissa emphasized the need for strong, consistent executive sponsorship to break down existing walls between and among departments and making the new system a success.
