Register Externally hosted app in PCF Service Registry


I am trying to add an ASP.NET 4.x app hosted externally (using AWS Elastic Beanstalk) into the Service-registry of an existing PCF. Edit: Is this possible? If so, can someone give me an example about how this can be done


Solution

  • The comment by Daniel Mikusa is very appropriate for how I achieved this.

    For Pivotal SCS, you would want to create a service instance (if you don't have one already), then create a service key for your external app. That will give you all of the binding info/creds you need to connect from your remote service. A service key is the same as binding a service to an app, except it's not tied to an app so it works well for situations like this. Just give your service key a good name, so you know that it's being used by an external app when you come back and see it a year from now
