What is a Carbon

application

A Carbon Application, abbreviated as a cApp, is a collection of artifacts deployable on a Carbon instance. These artifacts are usually java-based or xml configurations, designed differently for each product in the Carbon platform. In a single Carbon-based solution, there can be numerous artifacts used, such as Axis2 services, data services, synapse configurations, endpoints, proxy services, mediators, registry resources, BEPL workflows etc. Usually, these artifacts are created in a development environment and then moved one by one into staging/production environments. When moving a Carbon solution from one setup to the other, the user has to manually configure these artifacts to build up the entire solution. This is a time-consuming process. Alternatively, bundling configuration files and artifacts in a cApp makes it easy for users to port their Web service based solution from one environment to another.

As WSO2 Stratos, which is the WSO2 Carbon based Cloud Middleware Platform, is introduced, the above action is not possible for a tenant since the tenant user is remote to the server instance.
