Bundles are great ways to package software for use by a type of business, a size of business, or a job function, among many other go-to-market motivations for bundling software.
The Federated Core [Provisioner](/docs/federated-core-platform/provisioner.md) can spin up Federated Cores based on a software manifest that can be created "just in time" or based on a predefined collection of software and virtual machine. This allows you to fully manage the the expects margins for a sale.
You can even specify ranges of virtual machines depending on the type of cloud to which you are provisioning. For example: you may want to package one set of software for your Ampere-based Cores, versus another set of software based on X64-based Cores.
Further, bundles are useful to introduce more software to a customer and incentivize him to try more functionality. You may discover, in time, that, for example, customers purchasing CRM (EspoECRM) also want Mailing List management. You can build a bundle called "Digital Marketing" and sell that to customers with it defined as a bundle in Federated Core Platform.
Technically, bundles are simply a software dependency tree. You define them for provisioner using a YAML file such as:
```
[Good]
Mini # not required. always inferred.
Nextcloud
Nextcloud-Talk
Wordpress
Valutwarden
Headscale
Simple-VPN
```
Thereafter, you only need to call "Good" to provision a Core with the specified software.

Federated offers a wide range of open source SaaS software. These can be provisioned individually or as part of a bundle. Provisions can happen on the same machine or virtual machine or on separate virtual machines for the sake of vertical scaling. Load balancers can also be applied for the SaaS applications that require it for horizontal scaling.
This catalog describes the software offerings available to customers at [https://www.federated.computer](https://www.federated.computer/) today. For go-to-market reasons, we offer a reduced sub-set of this catalog based on Federated Computer’s own website but all titles can be provisioned for customers as-needed.
All software works with Federated Computer's monitor and fix, update and upgrade, unified storage, and authentication technologies for simple user experience.

### Examples of Software Bundles
It is a smart go-to-market to bundle offerings together into a complete solution for a business, team, business type, or job function. Here are a couple examples:
1) [Federated Bundles](bundles.md)
2) [Federated Commerce](federated-commerce.md)
3) [Federated Omnimedia](federated-omnimedia.md)

Every package can be extended for a given customer with the following capabilities:
1) Hot failover and backup. we can run parallel infrastructure so the customer is never down. Good for high traffic days or big events.
2) Message bus: pipe lots of information out to a third party application or consumer.
3) CDN. provide the best experience to customers around the globe.
4) Jitsi Load Balancer: achieve very large video conferencing meetings.
5) Load Balancers: scale any service to high availability.
