enable cloud portability with paas
DESCRIPTION
Can changing where your apps live really be as easy as changing a pair of shoes? Choice and flexibility are not words that most IT folks are accustomed to. Usually, you get to pick your infrastructure once and away you go - within the confines of that infrastructure of course! But what if prices, features, or your requirements change and that infrastructure doesn't fit you as well as it used to? Private Platform-as-a-Service empowers your IT and DevOps teams and makes it easy for them to take control and easily shift applications from one cloud environment to another. Whether you're moving private to public or back again, or switching vendors, move your applications with a few keystrokes and be up and running in minutes! In this presentation, ActiveState's Developer Evangelist John Wetherill and Cloud Engineer Ho Ming Li talk about: - Application-centric portability - The need for consistent environments - Freedom from vendor lock in and why it matters - Cost & security concerns.TRANSCRIPT
