Cloud Foundry, Micro Cloud Foundry, VMX

As part of my exploration into NoSQL and MongoDB, I have been exploring CloudFoundry. 

I first learned about CloudFoundry during SpringOne 2GX 2011 last October in Chicago

We received flash drives with the Micro Cloud Foundry on it, but I was way too busy with work at the time to give it much thought. 

However, as I started looking for Cloud Hosting and PaaS that supports MongoDB, I realized that CloudFoundry supports MongoDB. 

Registered here: http://my.cloudfoundry.com/signup and received an email with my credentials.  One thing that struck me as odd was that when I signed in, I was unable to change my password from the randomly generated one.

Oh, well, I proceeded to download Micro Cloud Foundry. I also set up VMX and am able to remotely connect to CloudFoundry.
