2. WHY ARE WE HERE
Introduce the concept of PaaS
Explain why we need more PaaS adoption
Discover Cloud Foundry
Highlight the Cloud Foundry Architecture

3. WHAT IS PLATFORM AS A SERVICE
A cloud computing service offering
Allows you to manage and run applications
Without worrying about infrastructure

4. WHERE DOES A PAAS LIVE

5. INFRASTRUCTURE AS A SERVICE
resources are distributed as a service
allows for dynamic scaling
variable cost pricing (like utilities)
usually multiple users on single piece of hardware

6. AMAZON WEB SERVICES

7. WINDOWS AZURE

8. OPENSTACK

9. VMWARE

10. GOOGLE COMPUTE ENGINE

11. PLATFORM AS A SERVICE
this is why you are here...

12. SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE
network access to, and mgmt of commercially available software
managed from central locations and available remotely via the web
single instance, multi-tenant architecture
centralized feature updating

13. CRM SAAS

14. PRODUCTIVITY SAAS

15. EMAIL SAAS

16. EMAIL SAAS

17. CHAT SAAS

18. SOURCE CONTROL SAAS

19. COMPARED TO IAAS AND SAAS
vs PAAS
IAAS More Abstraction Less Control
SAAS Less Abstraction More Control

20. WHICH SERVICES SHOULD A PAAS OFFER
What are the criteria for evaluating Paas providers?
"THE 10 LAYERS OF PAAS"

21. 5 LAYERS OF PAAS INFRASTRUCTURE
Virtual resources - IaaS is a key building block
High availability - data backup and disaster recovery
Scalability - increases in load and site traffic
Maintenance & optimization - tuning of web and database layer
Monitoring - catch performance degradation or security threats

22. 5 LAYERS OF PAAS APP DEVELOPMENT
Continuous delivery - separate environments, test automation,
quality assurance
Application maintenance - software and security updates
Integration with third-party tools - web services, databases, etc.
Application and infrastructure support services
Support for different development languages

23. WHY DO WE NEED PAAS
WHAT ARE THE BUSINESS DRIVERS ?

24. BUSINESS DRIVERS FOR PAAS
Innovation Time To Market Cost Reduction

25. PAAS FACILITATES INNOVATION
It's a tool which enables Enterprise DevOps
High level of standardization and automation
Cost of mistakes is reduced
Experimentation becomes a possibility

26. PAAS DECREASES TIME TO MARKET
Keeps the developer focus on the applications
Streamlines IT Operations and speeds up processes
With faster release cycles as a result

27. PAAS BRINGS COST REDUCTION
Elasticity of servers, storage and network bandwidth
Software maintenance is handled by the platform
So IT Operations can avoid daily routine tasks

28. SOME EXAMPLES OF PAAS
But that's not why we're here tonight...
