Session presented at the 2nd IndicThreads.com Conference on Cloud Computing held in Pune, India on 3-4 June 2011. http://CloudComputing.IndicThreads.com Abstract: Cloud Computing has had phenomenal growth over the past year and continues to entrench itself in all facets of IT. Cloud Computing is definitely more than just a buzz word or a passing trend. Now the heavy weights like IBM, HP and SAP are ready lock horns with existing players like Amazon, Salesforce and Microsoft whose offerings have matured over a period of time. Besides these big players, a lot of start ups are coming up with innovative offerings in this space. The talk is about the current state of affairs in the cloud computing. It will cover the products, services and offerings that have been making a lot of noise in the cloud computing space. Following are the main points that will be covered in the talk: 1. New Players: A lot of enterprise market giants are now coming to the cloud party offering infrastructure and platform services. IBM has come out with its SmartCloud for private as well as public clouds. Oracle has released its Cloud-in-a-box solution. The talk will cover all the new offerings by these enterprise giants. 2. Old Players, New offerings – Amazon being the leader in the Cloud Infrastructure space has rolled out a lot of new products and services, strengthening its hold in the market and expanding into the PaaS segment. Amazon Beanstalk, Amazon CloudFormation and EC2 Dedicated instances most notably have the power to be game changers. SalesForce the leader in the Cloud SaaS space released database.com, enterprise cloud database and its “PaaS” offering similar to GAE – VMforce.com This section will cover the new offerings by the players. 3 .Interesting Players in the cloud ecosystem: There have been a lot of new players who are leveraging the cloud to build some exciting products like Scalable API platforms, Cloud-based logging, Java in the Cloud. etc eg. Apigee, PiCloud, Loggly,Cumulogic, Cloudbees being some of them. This section will cover most of the exciting platforms and technologies these companies are working on. 4. Current Trends and Future: This section will cover the current trends(where a lot of startups are investing in) and how the future will look like in the cloud space. Finally, the talk plans to “arm” developers and architects with the latest and cutting edge platforms, products and technologies in the cloud that have been developed and made available over the last year, helping them to leverage the cloud and make better choices leading to higher ROI and lesser TCO. Speaker: Chirag Jog, is the CTO at Clogeny Technologies where the main focus is on Innovation in the Cloud Computing, Scalable Applications and Storage space. He is the chief geek at Clogeny who talks “Cloud” and works on architecting exciting ideas in the cloud space. He has previously spoken at IndicThreads, CloudCamp and other cloud related events.

• 2011 - Year of the PAAS!• Private Clouds• Amazon Riding High.• Interesting Startups.• Summary.
Current State of Affairs - Cloud Computing
7
Platform As a Service• Easy Application Deployment• Without worry about underlying Hardware
or Software• Auto-managed environment - Elastic,
Secure.• Support the Complete life cycle of building
and delivering “applications” or “services”.• Visualization tools
8
Platform As a Service - 2011• Paradigm Change in the definition of PAAS.• Existing Solutions:• Google App Engine, Force.com
vs• Java Deployment Platform as a Service.• Vmware’s CloudFoundry• Redhat’s OpenShift• DotCloud.com• And Amazon’s Elastic Beanstalk
9
2011 - Year Of the PAAS!• What is Platform as a Service?• 2010 Definition• Develop Application using provided SDK.• Tightly coupled Stack. • Lack of Flexibility.• Existing Applications cannot run as-is• No Control of Database !!• Language Limitations• Vendor Lock-Ins !
10
2011- Year Of the PAAS!• What is Platform as a Service?• 2011 Definition• Bring you Application and we will host it.• Choices of frameworks• Choices of application infrastructure services• Choices of deployment clouds • Private Cloud Support• Java EE, Python, node.js, Ruby and many more.
11
Cloud Foundry
12
Vmware Cloud Foundry• Open – Platform as a Service• Spring (Java), Rails and Sinatra (Ruby),
Node.js• MongoDB, MySQL and Redis• CloudFoundry.com – hosted PAAS• CloudFoundry.org – Open Source project• Micro Cloud – Personal PAAS !

OpenShift by Redhat• EXPRESS – deploy new and existing Ruby,
PHP, and Python applications in the cloud for free.• FLEX - free PaaS for new and existing
JBoss, Java EE6, and PHP applications• POWER - Deploy applications to the cloud
that are written to Linux (i.e. written in C, or using many binary components),
15
Cumulogic/CloudBees• Bring your Application (war/ear).• Choose your Cloud (Private/Public)• Choose the Application Stack of your
choice.• Host the application.• Use the same tools you would normally
use for a traditional Java EE middleware deployment.
16
