We apologise for the fault in the slides. Use of excessive animation
and llama references are unacceptable.
Those responsible have been sacked.
The year of…?
But basically…
This is all about PEOPLE
How did we get here?
They brought the gubbins Iaas = the new hardware
They brought the APIs and data (aka MBaaS) APIs - mashups, data, agility
They brought the rapid development push ‘myapp’ -> running
They brought the business challenge data -> advantage
Characteristics - Expectations
• vast scale
• innovation
• rapid data analysis and iteration
• agility of delivery (even at scale)
Expectation Enterprise -> people, apps, data
How to be those guys?
To succeed where those guys have? Platform
Rumours of the demise of PaaS are greatly exaggerated…
Why Open wins
An important year in software

21+ years later: Linux has won
Linux runs everywhere (even old versions, on crashy airline entertainment systems...)
#P0WN ALL TEH
GADGETZ !
It runs on Windows Azure! Jun 2012, w. Canonical
Linux is ubiquitous
(but often invisible)
It works.
It works here too
No single language to “rule them all”
Data gets bigger (and faster, and needs analysis, and SCIENCE)
Composability is key
The 2014 Cloud Forecast?
