Hi Chris, Here from [1] you can get idea of stratos layered architecture. As you can see there is a layer called "PaaS framework", which explain components of it. All apache stratos build components are belongs to it. Simply what we are building is a PaaS framework. When we add cartridges + IaaS layer its become the PaaS. ( we are giving sample cartridges like PHP, tomcat and MySQL, in that sence we can see its a PaaS. But our main focus is in the PaaS framework)
