Platform as a Service on VirtEngine

Order a managed platform instead of assembling every server beneath it.

Compare IaaS, PaaS and SaaS Custom listings
Protocol in development Example listings are illustrative

Responsibility stack

Your application you manage
PaaS runtime provider manages
Managed service provider manages
Orchestration provider manages
Infrastructure provider manages
The provider operates the platform; you deploy onto it. The line moves down the stack, not away from the chain.

Catalogue

Example managed platforms

Three illustrative listings — example providers, not live availability. What changes between providers is the runtime they operate, not the market rail.

A managed-platform plan adds components and how they are measured, limits that bound consumption, and the lifecycle actions the provider supports. Where the responsibility line sits for each service model is the subject of the IaaS vs PaaS vs SaaS article.

Fulfilment

How a platform is provisioned

  1. 01 Lease
  2. 02 Provider daemon
  3. 03 Waldur plugin
  4. 04 Managed platform
  5. 05 Platform endpoint

The chain records the lease. The provider's integration creates the platform; the endpoint is what your team uses.

Go deeper: Waldur integration for order routing and lifecycle callbacks, fulfilment for the full path, and x/market for lease state.
