Script
- The name of the software starts with the service name that is followed by the ending
-ware. For instance, CNM Wikiware powers CNM Wiki, CNM Tubeware powers CNM Tube, CNM Mailware powers CNM Mail, etc.
- Some CNM apps require computing servers. The servers provide these apps with the operating system, database, support of programming languages, and web servers.
- Other CNM apps are parts of software containers. Besides the apps, these containers include operating systems, so the containers don't rely on the computing servers. Container engines of the CNM Farms provision the containers with everything they need to operate.
- Initially, all CNM apps based on the computing servers, but the number of containers is constantly growing. Eventually, those apps that rely on the servers for their computing functions will completely move to CNM Cloud Next.
- A new execution model is tested on the Cloud Next. It is called serverless. Some part of this experimental cloud would be provisioned in the way that the new apps will not need to rely on any servers at all.
