Platform as a Service (PaaS) built on Cloud Foundry & Cloud Foundry Core compatible. Supports .NET, Java, PHP, Ruby, Python, Node.js, and more.
Cloud infrastructure makes it simple to provision and manage virtual servers; Web Fabric, Tier 3’s platform as a service (PaaS) product, does the same thing for cloud applications. Web Fabric operates at higher level of abstraction where developers have little need to manage the underlying infrastructure that hosts their applications. The result is a more efficient use of resources and a simplified deployment and management experience.
No longer do developers have to provision servers, install web servers, deploy database software, and establish a secure network within their application environment. With Web Fabric, developers push their modern web applications to a highly-available, centralized services fabric that deploys in seconds and automatically includes load balancing, rapid scalability, automatic updates, and more.

Web Fabric supports many frameworks and services — choose the right technologies for your apps, including Spring, Ruby on Rails, and Node.js.

Apps powered by Web Fabric are reliable and secure because they run on the Tier 3 cloud infrastructure.

Web Fabric gives you your own, dedicated stack, thereby fulfilling common enterprise security and compliance requirements. You get your own secure, isolated environment, encapsulated in a private VLAN.
Based on Cloud Foundry and the .NET-friendly fork called Iron Foundry. Cloud Foundry Core compatible which means that you can confidently migrate applications from any other Cloud Foundry provider.
For ASP.NET, .NET, Python, Java, Ruby, PHP, Node.js, and Erlang.
Application services for MongoDB, NoSQL, Microsoft SQL, MySQL, Neo4j, PostgresSQL, RabbitMQ, and Redis.
Automatically manages capacity provisioning and load balancing as well as application performance monitoring from New Relic.
May be deployed in public, private, or hybrid environments.
Enterprise-grade capabilities, with native support for high availability, high performance, and disaster recovery. Built and optimized for Tier 3’s enterprise cloud infrastructure.
Runs in a secure, isolated environment. Private VLANs ensure no risk of “shared” access from other customers, and support direct integration with other apps.
Supports applications deployed on your data centers, as well as those deployed on the Tier 3 cloud.
Web Fabric can be a better option than cloud infrastructure for application deployment in some common scenarios. Consider these three cases:
Enterprise data centers are bursting with key web applications that were custom built for each business unit. Many of these apps sit on underutilized, dedicated hardware that wastes space and money. By moving these applications to Web Fabric, customers can take advantage of multi-tenancy while not sacrificing the uptime or reliability of these critical applications.
In addition to migrating existing business applications, enterprises are increasingly looking to cloud services to host new, modern web applications. These services encourage a rapid, agile delivery of web applications. Specifically, Web Fabric gives developers their choice of programming language and framework to use.
Tier 3 offers both a PaaS and IaaS solution, which means that enterprises can deploy critical applications to both environments while securely connecting them when needed.
As the speed of business continues to increase, the pressure is on IT departments to deliver software even faster. Traditional means of deploying software to dedicated servers makes it difficult to rapidly prototype solutions or quickly publish temporary or seasonal web applications. Applications can be deployed to the Tier 3 Web Fabric in seconds and inherently have the enterprise-grade support needed for reliable, global applications that may be online for months or years.
Each Web Fabric environment gets a public IP address, which means that Web Fabric makes an excellent host for the numerous public-facing web properties that are dispersed throughout enterprise IT departments. Thanks to its support for the most popular web application frameworks, Web Fabric can host a diverse range of public websites while providing the deep performance analytics that enterprise customers demand.
