BOSH is an open source tool for release engineering, deployment, lifecycle management, and monitoring of distributed systems. BOSH can provision and deploy software over hundreds of VMs. It also performs failure recovery and software updates with zero-to-minimal downtime.

In the first half of the talk, we will be going through the architecture of BOSH and how it tries to solve a particular set of problems. In the next half, we will be demoing a use case of BOSH where it will be used to automate JMeter load tests.
