Currently Cloud Foundry only supports routing of http traffic to
applications. There are many use cases, especially related to IOT, for
which applications need to receive non-http traffic.

Together with Atul Kshirsagar and Fermin Ordaz from GE, we've begun initial
work on a TCP Routing service that would enable routing of non-http traffic
to applications running on Diego in Lattice and Cloud Foundry.

Our project proposal is open for public comment and we welcome your
feedback:

We will be requesting this project be accepted into incubation with a Cloud
Foundry Foundation PMC.
