Use cases
=========
**IT-as-a-Service**
An *IT organization* manages applications and controls the applications
availability to different OpenStack cloud users in a simple and timesaving
manner.
A *cloud end user* can easily find and deploy any available application
from the catalog.
**Self-service portal**
An *application developer* and *quality assurance engineer* reduces efforts
on testing an application for compatibility with other applications,
databases, platforms, and other components it depends on, by configuring
compound combinations of applications dynamically and deploying
environments that satisfy all requirements within minutes.
**Glue layer use case**
A *cloud end user* is able to link an ever growing number of technologies
to any application in an OpenStack cloud with a minimum cost due to
the powerful Murano architecture.
Currently, Murano applications have been integrated with the following
technologies: Docker, Legacy apps VMs or bare metal, apps outside of
OpenStack, and others.
The following technologies are to become available in the future:
Cloudify and TOSCA, Apache Brooklyn, and APS.
