Pablo Lalloni on 22 Aug 14"Flynn is two things: A "distribution" of components that out-of-the-box gives companies a reasonable starting point for an internal "platform" for running their applications and services. The banner for a collection of independent projects that together make up a toolkit or loose framework for building distributed systems. Flynn is both a whole and many parts, depending on what is most useful for you. The common goal is to democratize years of experience and best practices in building distributed systems. It is the software layer between operators and developers that makes both their lives easier. Unlike most PaaS's, Flynn can run stateful services as well as 12 factor apps. This includes built-in database appliances (just Postgres to start). Flynn is modular so users can easily modify, upgrade, and replace components. "
