Wikipedia knows everything

“Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a category of cloud computing services that provides a platform allowing customers to develop, run, and manage Web applications without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure typically associated with developing and launching an app.”- The all-knowing Wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platform_as_a_service



Common features & advantages



Common features & advantages

Focus on your app—not the infrastructure behind it

− Rapid app development!

Dynamically scale your app based on usage

− Pay for what you use!

Leverage data storage and services on the platform

Code in your favorite programming language



Try this!

If you don’t have a laptop or tablet, find someone who does.

Register for Bluemix and DevOps Services.

Deploy a boilerplate app and try it out.

If a deployment fails, go to your app’s overview page and restart it.

If you have extra time, explore the Get Creative and Additional Resources sections.



Software as a Service



Wow, Wikipedia is smart

“Software as a service (SaaS) is a software licensing and delivery model in which software is licensed on a subscription basis and is centrally hosted… SaaS is typically accessed by users using a thin client via a web browser.”- The all-knowing Wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_as_a_service



Try this!

Create a DevOps Services project for your app

Plan your work

Implement a task

Mark the task complete



DevOps



Wikipedia is nailing it today

“DevOps (a clipped compound of ‘development’ and ‘operations’)… is a software development method that emphasizes communication, collaboration…, integration, automation, and measurement of cooperation between software developers and other IT professionals.”- The all-knowing Wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DevOps

Try this!

Configure a pipeline

Kick off the pipeline by pushing code to your Git repo



Wow! We did a lot in an hour!

Cloud services can remove pain:

− Infrastructure as a Service (removes some)

− Platform as a Service (removes more)

− Software as a Service (removes the most)

DevOps aims to get software released faster

It is possible to ditch your desktop, and code for the cloud in the cloud!
