Using this router recomputes new routing table based on IP addresses of each cell VM and the host side port number for the cell's container. Oauth2 Server(UAA) and Login server work together to provide the identity management. Cloud controller and Diego brain: CC is responsible for application life-cycle and deployment. It directs the diego brain through CC Bridge component to coordinate individual Diego cells to stage and run applications. CC also maintains record of orgs, spaces, user roles and services. nsync : recieves the message from CC when user scales an app. It writes number of instances into a desiredLRP s...
