An ecosystem is the expansion of a software product line architecture to include systems outside the product which interact with the product. A cloud ecosystem includes interdependent and communicating components. Not only the cloud ecosystem itself keeps evolving, but it also affects the way in which we develop and deploy software. We model the architecture of a cloud ecosystem as a set of patterns, showing partial descriptions for some of them. We then discuss the role of this evolving platform in facilitating the Internet of Things and the new DevOps framework for developing software.
