The Convergence of IaaS and PaaS

Featuring: Thorsten von Eicken - Founder & CTO, RightScale
November 28 10:30am - 11:20am
Track: Architecture
Code: SPR202

In the six years since AWS launched, pundits have categorized cloud offerings into IaaS, PaaS and SaaS. However, the lines between these categories have started to blur. As IaaS solutions offer more platform and application services, this traditional view is becoming outdated. In this talk, you will learn about the shift to a new world of cloud services, where companies can pick and choose from a menu of options and assemble a solution that fits their needs. Find out how to architect your solutions to leverage a wide variety of cloud services and get a glimpse into what it means for your customers and your business.

The possibilities are endless with AWS. You can spin up more servers than you ever imagined – across the globe and across your organization. But how will you manage all your AWS usage, especially as it continues to grow? How will you ensure that your deployments on AWS are rock-solid? In this session we will discuss and demonstrate how to use RightScale cloud management to:

• Bullet-proof your application
• Automate and organize
• Forecast cloud costs

We’ll be joined by RightScale customers who will share their expertise and results from using the cloud with RightScale, followed by Q&A. Customers: Andy West, Director of Digital Technology Architecture at Pearson and Amit Utreja, Cloud Operations Architect at Coupa Software.
