Create a Redis BOSH Release
What?
Okay, the training wheels are coming off. This BOSH Release is gonna be you + the same docs anyone else uses (“whhaaaaaat?” “I know, they grow up so fast!”). But first, a little preamble:
A BOSH release is a versioned collection of configuration properties, configuration templates, start up scripts, source code, binary artifacts, and anything else required to build and deploy software in a reproducible way. Each BOSH VM starts with a stemcell, and then has utility added to it in the form of releases. Your Redis release might include start-up and shutdown scripts for the redis-server, a tarball with Redis source code obtained from the Redis official website, and configuration properties allowing cluster operators to alter that Redis configuration.
How?
Follow these instructions and refer to this MySQL release as an example. If you get totally stuck, refer to this community-created Redis release.
Expected Result
A BOSH release that facilitates the use of Redis by a CF deployed app.
