I built CloudFoundry so that you uploaded a .st file (in my ESUG example it was 'aida.st') that was used to build the image. The server executed the .st file and saved the resulting image (it could load .mcz files directly or execute a Metacello script). Whenever your application was needed, a copy of the saved image was used.

James, can I check a few assumptions - I want to make sure I am not putting words in VMWare's mouth, or missing an opportunity. 1. Is it the case that CloudFoundry.com has no current plans to offer gemstone as a hosted option? 2. Your work on getting Aida to run was targeted at the cloudfoundry.org, And therefore it would require someone to set up a separate hosting operation - using the cloudfoundry code - in order for us to use your work? If 1 and 2 are true, is there anyway that we can use the .com side in pursuit of this PhaaS objective? I assume not, but I would hate to miss the simple fix :-) Cheers Andy
