Cloud Foundry on Google Cloud Platform

0

My application has Jackrabbit Oak implementation, so it uses direct binary upload features through S3DataStore for storing files on AWS-S3. For AWS-S3 integration, we had created service broker instance on Cloud Foundry which was on our on-premises server.

Now I moved Cloud Foundry on Google Cloud Platform, but when I am trying to search AWS-S3 service broker using cf marketplace command. I could not see the aws-s3 service broker.

How to get aws-s3 service broker and if it is not possible then, is there any way to integrate aws-s3 storage with application deployed on CloudFoundry on GCP in case of above scenarios.

It's hard to know what you had deployed on your platform as we don't have any context of what was installed there. Just a guess, but it sounds like you had the Tanzu AWS Service Broker installed. It has service offerings for aws-s3.

You can still install the Tanzu AWS Service Broker when running Tanzu Application Service on top of GCP, you just need to have a AWS account where the broker will create your service instances. The broker creates AWS resources on behalf of the users and it does it under a given AWS account, so as long as you still have an AWS account you can make it work.

That said, there's also a GCP broker that functions in the same, so if you are trying to move off AWS to GCP entirely you could look at using the GCP broker instead. GCP has a similar cloud storage offering.

Once you install either broker, you'll see the service plan offerings in your marketplace. If you're still not seeing them, check cf service-access as an admin user. You may need to enable access to those services with cf enable-service-access.

Go back to the team that moved you between CF/AWS and CF/GCP and tell them you need your S3 broker back :)
