Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for implementing an integrated cloud system that enables a user to integrate software tasks executing on different software platforms. A method includes maintaining, by an integrated cloud system, a first software platform and a different second software platform that are configured to communicate by a shared networking subsystem. The integrated cloud system receives a first request to deploy instance(s) of a first software task on the first software platform. The first platform deploys the instance(s) of the first software tasks. The integrated cloud system receives a request to deploy instance(s) of a second software task on the second software platform. The second platform deploys the instance(s) of the second software task. The integrated cloud system configures communications between the instance(s) of the first software task and the instance(s) of the second software task using the shared networking subsystem.

Framework for managing cloud computing platforms

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for deploying and using a light-weight cloud application platform. In one aspect, a method includes providing a deployment tool configured to deploy a light-weight cloud application platform in an execution environment in response to a user command that specifies the environment, and to create one or more instances of a cloud application executing on the light-weight cloud application platform in response to a user command that specifies a container image that includes the application. The deployment tool receives a first user command that specifies the execution environment. In response, the deployment tool deploys components of the light-weight cloud application platform, including a scheduling subsystem and a routing subsystem. The deployment tool receives a second user command that specifies a location of the container image. In response, instances of the cloud application are deployed without receiving further user commands.
