Is PaaS Tech Still Around? Maybe Containers Will Kill it or Bring it?

Is PaaS Tech Still Around? Maybe Containers Will Kill it or Bring it?

By Adron Hall on November 22, 2013

Recently a post from @Gigabarb popped up on the ole’ Twitter that started a micro-storm of twitter responses. Ok tech users. Who out there is using a PaaS? For realz. Serious question.— Barb Darrow (@gigabarb) November 21, 2013 This got me thinking about a number of things and I started to write her an email […]

Architectural PaaS Cracks or Crack PaaS

Architectural PaaS Cracks or Crack PaaS

By Adron Hall on July 29, 2013

Over the last couple years there have been two prominent open source PaaS Solutions come onto the market. Cloud Foundry & OpenShift. There’s been a lot of talk about these plays and the talk has slowly but steadily turned into traction. Large enterprises are picking these up and giving their developers and operations staff a …

OSCON : Day 1, Windows Just Doesn’t Do Cloud Foundry… but, there’s a fix for that…

By Adron Hall on July 26, 2013

The day before yesterday was day one, for me, of OSCON. I’d been out of town on business meet on Monday, so skipped out on the intro day. However the second day, my first, was a good time. There was already a good dose of “oh dear, I can’t attend ALL of the sessions I […]

Back in the Bosh Bunker

Back in the Bosh Bunker

By Adron Hall on June 12, 2013

In the last post on the topic of Bosh I put together a simple Cloud Foundry environment using the tools & repos of Stark & Wayne. Even though the bootstrap is a great way to get an environment up and started, it doesn’t explain a lot of things about Bosh. So let’s take a look […]

Using Bosh to Bootstrap Cloud Foundry via Stark & Wayne Consulting

By Adron Hall on April 15, 2013

I finally sat down and really started to take a stab at Cloud Foundry Bosh. Here’s the quick lowdown on installing the necessary bits and getting an initial environment built. Big thanks out to Dr Nic @drnic, Luke Bakken & Brain McClain @brianmmcclain for initial pointers to where the good content is. With their guidance […]

Deploycon, PaaS & the pending data tier gravity fallout…

By Adron Hall on April 1, 2013

For a quick recap of last years Deploycon & related talks, check out my “Day #3 => DeployCon && Enterprise && Data Gravity” entry from last year. PaaS Systems aren’t always effectively distributed. Heroku has fallen over every time east-1 has gone down at AWS. Not that I’m saying they’ve done bad, just pointing that […]

Thor Project Opens Up, Building the Cloud Foundry Ecosystem with the Community

By Adron Hall on September 17, 2012

The Iron Foundry Team are big advocates of open source software. We write code across all sorts of languages, just like many of the development shops out there do. Sometimes we’re heavy on the .NET, other times we’re all up in some Java, Ruby on Rails, spooling up a Node.js Application or something else. So …

In My Dreariness, I Installed Cloud Foundry and extended it with Iron Foundry

By Adron Hall on September 7, 2012

Morning! I put together a video late last night based on setting up a Cloud Foundry instance with Iron Foundry extensions. It’s a little long, since I’ve mostly *not edited* it. The instructions have been available for a while but I thought, why not make a video and publish it. In the very near future […]

Adam & Krishan Got Me Motivated Today… to toss the trash conversations

By Adron Hall on September 7, 2012

I was speaking with Krishan Subramanian (@krishnan) and Adam Seligman (@adamse) today. I love talking to these guys. They’re both smart, intelligent and upbeat guys. They see the positive things we’re all working toward and accomplishing in the technology space, specifically around PaaS, Cloud Computing and around the cultural implications of stronger technology communities, involvement …

The Bad, The Ugly and The Good Bits :: Sexism, VMworld 2012 & Smart Cool People

By Adron Hall on August 30, 2012

The Divide in Technologists… Sexism & Those That are Building Tech There seems to be a pretty distinctive divide in the technology industry today. There are the young, open minded, devop oriented, free-thinking individuals and then there are the old guard of IT. This later group still brings the “booth babes” and finds an incessant […]

One of the things that I do in my work is lead the efforts around creating and leading open source projects. As regular readers may know, I’m big into open source efforts, especially around PaaS. My preferred PaaS offering these days for internal, external and public cloud PaaS is Cloud Foundry (with Iron Foundry for …

By Adron Hall on July 22, 2012

Tuesday night, as usual ended with great technical conversation at Bailey’s Taproom. Bailey’s is basically the epicenter of the Portland tech scene. Almost every programmer, devops, or technical person either goes about once a month or has this establishment as a regular watering hole! It’s great, the atmosphere is chill, the beer is SUPERB, the […]

IaaS vs. PaaS or Infrastructure vs. Platform and I Want Beer NOW!

IaaS vs. PaaS or Infrastructure vs. Platform and I Want Beer NOW!

By Adron Hall on July 6, 2012

A friend and now coworker of mine, Richard Seroter (@rseroter & Blog) decided to do a comparo. I took the infrastructure based deployment, ala IaaS and he took the platform based deployment, ala PaaS. What we’ve done is taken a somewhat standard ASP.NET MVC with Entity Framework, a SQL Server Database, a UX & UI design […]
