VBCS Deployment Commands

We can create a separate Git repository for each VBCS applications and we can use the following NPM command (Node JS) to install the application. 

We can use Jenkins or Oracle Developer Cloud Service to Get the code from repository and install the application. 

Create a respective build parameters and use them in the script. 

#!/bin/bash

cd $(pwd)/vbcs/application/${APPLICATION_NAME}

npm install

./node_modules/.bin/grunt vb-build --url=https://${VBCS_HOST_NAME}/ic/builder/ --username=${USER_NAME} --password=${PASSWORD} --id=${APPLICATION_ID} --ver=${VERSION} --schema=live

Proxy Servers

 Forward Proxy : This will hide the source details and forward the requests to target server.  Forward proxy will acts like VPN - Virtual Private Network. 

• This can be used where there is Geo restrictions. We can hide the source location and access the server. 
• This will anonymize client IP address. 
• Servers will receive the requests from Proxy Server and respond back to same proxy server. 
• Both VPN and Forward proxy will perform the same action.  Both have advantage and disadvantage. 
• Depending on the Proxy Server performance your end to end performance will vary.  
• Always go for VPN.

Reverse Proxy: Reverse proxy acts like a front for Servers. Like a load balancers. This will anonymize the server IP address. 

• Reverse proxy can acts like a Load Balancer and distribute the traffic to multiple servers. 
• Acts like Global Server Load Balancer . Advanced load balancer concept to distribute the traffic to multiple servers deployed across the world. 
• Provides enhanced security to secure the servers. Avoid DDoS attacks. 
• Provides caching capabilities. 
• Provides SSL encryption and termination. 

• Main Reverse Proxies
• Nginx
• Varnish
• Apache Traffic Server
