Explore VMware's Self-Guided Tours

Tanzu Application Service is a modern application platform for enterprises that want to continuously deliver and run microservices securely at scale both on-premises and across clouds. It's the best runtime for Spring and Spring Boot: Spring Boot apps “just work” on Tanzu Application Service, with no modification. There’s extensive architectural affinity between Spring apps and the platform.

It has a native Windows and .NET experience: Tanzu Application Service includes deep support for modern patterns and practices for Windows Server and .NET Framework, which is ideal for enterprises that need a better runtime for their Windows apps.

App Autoscaler automates horizontal scaling: Add more capacity to your applications when traffic spikes, and scale down as traffic returns to normal. Set thresholds and triggers.

Troubleshoot with App Metrics: App Metrics logs and displays application telemetry to help your engineers troubleshoot microservices architectures. Agentless install and zero-configuration setup.

Tanzu Application Platform (TAP) is a modular, application-aware platform that runs on any compliant public cloud or on-premises Kubernetes cluster. It delivers a superior multi-cloud developer experience with a prepaved path to production including all the needed components preconfigured for developer teams to build and deploy software quickly and securely. It’s a composable platform that teams can customize based on their organization’s preferences and changing business needs.

Tanzu Application Platform works across any Kubernetes to simplify the developer and operator experience. It provides an ideal end-to-end, streamlined DevOps experience so teams can:

• Jumpstart application development. Developers get a sane starting place for their cloud native apps with application accelerators. These templates include skeleton code, configurations, and cloud native patterns combined with an organization’s best practices and security policies.
• Boost developer velocity. Developers get a consistent graphical user interface (GUI) to underlining services and APIs, making them easy to discover and integrate with other apps. Developers can work right in their integrated development environment (IDE) with Tanzu Application Platform developer tools. They can debug a running container on any Kubernetes cluster (running locally or on a managed Kubernetes cluster) and quickly update code in a running container, enabling them to quickly test and iterate.
• Accelerate the path to production. No more “wall of YAML” for deploying apps to Kubernetes. Operators can use the Supply Chain Choreographer to create preapproved paths to production and can customize it to bring their own opinions to meet business needs. In addition, the build service uses Cloud Native Build packs to automatically create containers from validated building blocks and update them with no manual intervention. All of this reduces friction for developers and enables a stronger security posture.
