Atmos is storage infrastructure.  It's not intended to have 3rd party apps run on the Atmos nodes themselves.  The nodes that are part of the Atmos cluster are used for internal software components that should not co-exist with other unrelated apps and processes. 

Happy to chat about this if you'd like.

That means that your app runs on nodes outside of Atmos, but stores it's objects and data files through the Atmos REST API.

I'm very curious to chat about this...

According to your reply, I can store files on ATMOS? that means i run the app and store files related to the app on ATMOS?

alright, so how do i go about doing all this?? i have my JAVA app ready...what next?

how do i install ATMOS? i have the installation files. The in installation is on Win xp or linux?

Atmos Evaluation Edition is a set of Atmos nodes that is delivered as prepackaged and preinstalled VMWare ESX images.  It comes with a set of requirements and has it's own installation scripts that can be used to deploy it on ESX.  Worth noting:  Atmos EE doesn't support ESXi at this time. 

I have the full package and installation guide, I just want to know if the installation is on Win xp or Linux??

Is there any other way i can interact with you apart from this forum?

Atmos is software delivered in appliance form.  In that regard it has it's own operating system which is based on Linux. 

The evaluation edition of Atmos, AEE, is a preinstalled version that requires VMWare ESX Server.

So if the question is:  "What operating system do I install Atmos on: Windows XP or Linux?" 

The answer is neither.  Atmos EE has it's own OS that requires ESX to operate.

If the question is:  "What operating system is Atmos based on?"

The answer is:  Linux.
