I want to run a Tomcat app in Cloudbees. This app accesses some private and confidential properties from the file system. How could I access a file system on Cloudbees? Please note that it should be highly protected, e.g. 700 or similar.
Regards,
Marco
RUN@Cloud platform don’t provide a persistent (nor distributed) filesystem. So you can’t use it to as canonical store for those files, but need to use an external file store to match your security requirements, and copy them as application is starting (or lazy-load) to java.io.temp directory. As files are stored on RUN@Cloud there is no security issue as your server instance is fully isolated, and files will be deleted after application undeployed/passivated
So you can use Amazon S3 or comparable to store files
Another option is for you to attach properties to the RUN@Cloud instance as configuration parameters, and access them as System properties. See http://wiki.cloudbees.com/bin/view/RUN/Configuration+Parameters
