Works very well for advanced service chaining requirements and has extremely advanced engineers for support

Pros

"Cloudify works in cases where you have very advanced service chaining requirements. It really works well there, and it fits the best. They have a standardized markup that's based on TOSCA, which is a standard. I like the fact that they're standards-based. Their solution works extremely well if you have the talent and the manpower to write TOSCA descriptors to deploy and interchange services or to automate the configuration and turn up of services."

Cons

"It lacked the user interface for multitenancy and basic platform management tasks. It is a leader in the niche area that they like to perform in, but it only does about 30% of top-tier advanced functions of platform management. It doesn't meet about 70% of what you need to manage a private cloud platform."

Background scripts run easily but be prepared for blueprint headaches

Pros

"The solution includes the option to run background scripts and processes from a connected API. "

Cons

"The solution is a bit of a headache because mistakes happen in the blueprint every time we deploy and they require modifications. "

Great at enabling a single platform to communicate with an entire infrastructure.

Pros

"It enables a single platform to communicate with the entire infrastructure."

Cons

"Error handling could be improved; GUI is lacking with respect to user privileges and connectivity. "

Applications are modeled as abstract blueprints, and interfaces to external systems are implemented in Python plugins.

It is easy to follow the template. More of the debug functionality is needed.

TOSCA allows modeling the application, not the automation, but event monitoring needs work

Pros

"TOSCA model allows modeling the application rather than the automation. It is a machine-readable representation of the application and its infrastructure, which can be used for other things too, not just for the orchestration (e.g. enterprise architecture big picture, who connects to whom)."

Cons

"Install of the product itself could be improved and I would like to see better event monitoring."
