Agenda
What is a Platform as a Service (PaaS)?• Capability provided to a Consumer of cloud computing• Enables the Consumer to deploy applications onto the cloud infrastructure
• using programming languages libraries, services, and tools supported by the cloud computing Provider.
• Provides Consumer with control over the deployed applications• Does not require Consumer to manage the underlying cloud
infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, or storage• Optionally provides control over configuration settings for the application
hosting environment

Cloud Foundry PaaS powering Bluemix
Developer Focus
Fastest Growing PaaS Community
Open Source Platform
Founding Members:
Cloud Foundry Conceptual Architecture
Identity management service for the platform. Also acts as an OAuth2 provider.
Exposes a REST API to the system. Manages a database of apps, services, service instances, etc
End user provided code that is “pushed” to the cloud and packaged to run in a container
A collection of code that is responsible for transforming pushed app artifacts into a ready to run droplet
A distributed deployment install and management tool that abstracts the details of the IaaS layer (Bosh Outer Shell)

Cloud Foundry on IBM Softlayer
Bluemix includes IBM, open source & 3rd party
services in the catalog Requirements mgmt, planning,
defect tracking, build, test, and deploy
Git compatible source control Runtimes and
buildpacks Starter kits for
Mobile, Internet of Things, Web, and other types of apps
Mobile App Development Demo Twilio is a global, cloud based telephony communications
platform IBM Bluemix service catalog offers Twilio as an IBM
certified 3rd party service Twilio + IBM Bluemix help developers:
build applications that communicate integrate voice, messaging and VOIP with web and
mobile applications using a single API eliminate complexity of traditional telephony systems quickly design applications for mobile platforms
Cloud Foundry Concepts To Remember Warden: A packaging / container mechanism used to
achieve application isolation in the Cloud Foundry environment (similar to Docker, uses LXC)
Droplet: A Warden container instance containing everything that is needed in order to successfully run your application, e.g. JVM, Liberty core libraries, the application itself, short of the operating system.
Buildpack: A collection of code that is responsible for transforming pushed application artifacts into a ready to run droplet, in a process referred to as ‘staging’.
Services: Code that Bluemix hosts that offers functionality for apps ranging from utility functions to very complex business logic
• Heterogeneous infrastructure• Multiple scalability models• High infrastructure resiliency• Multi-tenancy with virtualization• Self-service provisioning• Moderate cost

Use Cases for PaaS vs. IaaS
Bluemix Apps from IBM CustomersWeb Applications Mobile Backends• Scalable cloud centric web
applications and APIs supporting mobile workloads
• Leveraged many different language runtimes (Ruby, PHP, JavaScript, Java)
• Migration from competitive offerings: Heroku, Amazon, Rackspace
• Back end services replacing custom code hosted on IaaS (e.g. Push Notification)
• Cloud Code for offloading business logic from the mobile client
• Integrated into iOS and Android native applications using Bluemix

Hackathon: How to Get Started Play
Log in and use the catalog to spin up a boilerplate or a runtime Check out all of the different IBM, third party, and community
services Use the "getting started" guide to download the starter code
Deploy Get the Cloud Foundry command line tool Make any change to the starter code (and compile if using Java) cf push to Bluemix using the Cloud Foundry
Brainstorm Who will be the end user of my app? What problem(s) am I trying to solve for the user?

Global Footprint
“…we were able to quickly and easily embed Watson's capabilities into our eyeQinsights platform to provide an even more personalized shopping experience”
“we’re able to work with cognitive computing capabilities that we couldn’t dream of creating ourselves - it’s a fantastic opportunity and a real chance to transform our industry”
“[this] is like putting the Hubble telescope in the hands of a backyard astronomer… Watson’s cognitive possibilities alone will spawn a completely new service industry…”
