Available Sample Applications for Deployment
You can use the predefined single-tier or three-tier applications to deploy either a simple Web application
or a complex email suite. The application blueprint of a sample application includes logical templates,
services, external services, and application components that are fully functional when deployed to the
cloud.
An application architect can use the Application Services sample applications as a base to model and
create custom applications.
Deploy Nanotrader Application
The sample Nanotrader application is a three-tier Web application that deploys the NanoTrader
application using the vFabric Web Server, vFabric tc Server, vFabric RabbitMQ, and vFabric SQLFire
components.
Use the predefined sample application only in a test environment.
Prerequisites

Register the uploaded CentOS 6.3 32-bit template to a cloud provider. See Register the vCloud
Director Cloud Provider and Template, Register the vRealize Automation Cloud Provider and
Template, or Register the Amazon EC2 Cloud Provider and Template.
n
Map the cloud template to the CentOS63 32bit logical template. See Add a Logical Template to the
Library.
n
Log in to Application Services as an application architect and an application publisher and
deployer.
n
Understand the basic concepts of creating a deployment profile and deploying an application. See
Chapter 16 Deploying Applications.
n
Verify that the spring-nanotrader-asynch-services.war, spring-nanotrader-services.war,
spring-nanotrader-web.tgz, and spring-nanotrader-web.war files are downloaded to an
HTTPD server.
Procedure
