Heroku hstore: Key Value Store Inside Relational Database

Heroku hstore: Key Value Store Inside Relational Database

By Krishnan Subramanian on March 16, 2012

Heroku (previous CloudAve coverage), the PaaS company under Salesforce, announced recently that they will be supporting key value store inside their Postgres database instances. Named hstore, it takes advantage of Postgres’ extensibility. Ever since MySQL was gobbled up by Oracle, Postgres has been getting additional developer love from the community. I am not saying that […]

Can We Use DevOps And PaaS In The Same Sentence?

Can We Use DevOps And PaaS In The Same Sentence?

By Krishnan Subramanian on March 15, 2012

In spite of my post yesterday explaining the nuances behind the usage of the term NoOps, vendors with tools in Ops and DevOps space are taking the debate in binary terms. In spite of my efforts to highlight the fact that NoOps doesn’t mean Ops is going away, they are arguing that it conveys the […]

CloudBees Multi-Cloud Approach: A Lesson For Cloud Service Providers?

CloudBees Multi-Cloud Approach: A Lesson For Cloud Service Providers?

By Krishnan Subramanian on March 12, 2012

Last month CloudBees (previous CloudAve coverage), the Java PaaS provider and the company behind Jenkins, announced the availability of CloudBees AnyCloud, their multi-cloud strategy in an era where every cloud provider is offering support to multiple infrastructure services underneath. Though the news is a month old, I got briefed by them recently and the discussions […]

Next Iteration Of PaaS: Microsoft Game Plan

Next Iteration Of PaaS: Microsoft Game Plan

By Krishnan Subramanian on March 5, 2012

In January, I proposed a simple model for the next iteration of PaaS, called Intelligent Platforms, which is centered around data. As we move into a world dominated by Big Data with mobile and various sensors churning out data several orders of magnitude more than even the petabyte scale, data is the new oil for […]

Simple Workflow Service - Amazon Adding One Enterprise Brick At Time

Simple Workflow Service – Amazon Adding One Enterprise Brick At Time

By Chirag Mehta on February 24, 2012

This week Amazon announced a new orchestration service called Simple Workflow Service. I would encourage you to read the announcement on Werner’s blog where he explains the need, rationale, and architecture. The people I spoke to had mixed reactions. One set of people described this as a great idea and were excited that the developers can […]

Remember Next Gen PaaS and AWS? Here Is The Second Piece To The Puzzle

Remember Next Gen PaaS and AWS? Here Is The Second Piece To The Puzzle

By Krishnan Subramanian on February 21, 2012

When Amazon announced the release of DynamoDB, I argued that it was their first step towards joining the PaaS game in its next iteration. I am completely clueless on where Amazon is going but if Amazon has a plan for PaaS (which I am sure they have because PaaS is the future of Cloud Services), […]

TOSCA may prove a prescient name for new cloud standards effort

TOSCA may prove a prescient name for new cloud standards effort

By Paul Miller on January 25, 2012

Image via Wikipedia Last week, open standards body OASIS unveiled yet another shiny new standards effort. The OASIS Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) Technical Committee hopes to make it “easier to deploy cloud applications without vendor lock-in,” and to support moving from one cloud to another. The usual suspects — the likes of IBM, […]

Next Iteration Of PaaS: Will Amazon Join That Race?

Next Iteration Of PaaS: Will Amazon Join That Race?

By Krishnan Subramanian on January 20, 2012

I have been critical of “me too” approaches to PaaS by current breed of PaaS providers and have been calling for some differentiation which will take innovation to the next level. Some people have been asking me how the next generation of PaaS will look like. I have framed a simple model to explain where […]

ActiveState Stackato Now Supports Private PaaS on HP Cloud Services

ActiveState Stackato Now Supports Private PaaS on HP Cloud Services

By Ben Kepes on January 16, 2012

With the multitude of PaaS vendors that now exist, most providing an all-things-to-all-people polyglot solution that is (in my view at least) largely undifferentiated from their competitors, there is an increasing focus on vendors making partnerships that allows them to build both mindshare and market penetration. The latest is ActiveState who has announced that their […]

CollabNet Shows the Future of PaaS

CollabNet Shows the Future of PaaS

By Ben Kepes on January 5, 2012

I’ve been very bullish over the past couple of years about the role PaaS will play in a cloudy world. I see it as the future for cloud services. I’ve also commented about the increasing homogeneity of PaaS offerigns as they all start chasing each other to add new languages and frameworks – from the […]

Two Events That "Clouded" Our Thinking In 2011

Two Events That “Clouded” Our Thinking In 2011

By Krishnan Subramanian on January 3, 2012

2011 is long gone and I should have done this post last week. However, I still think it is relevant to highlight some changes in our thinking about the cloud that happened due to events in 2011. Whether many agree with me or not, I see 2011 as a year where cloud computing moved from […]

Even before the euphoria subsided, there is another announcement coming today, this time from Uhuru Software, about another implementation of .NET on CloudFoundry. Uhuru is a startup coming out of Stealth mode, founded by Microsoft veterans, offering comprehensive […]

PaaS Is The Future Of Cloud Services: Tier3 Adds .NET Support To CloudFoundry By Forking It

By Krishnan Subramanian on December 13, 2011

Today Tier3, Bellevue based enterprise cloud hosting provider, announced that they are adding .NET support to CloudFoundry (previous CloudAve coverage) by forking it. With this, they are essentially pushing VMware’s PaaS solution into Windows shops who might be interested in using an open source alternative. Remember it is not a mono implementation but .NET based one of […]

Please Note : This post builds directly on the previous post “A viable PaaS Model“ What are PaaS Element Types? PaaS Element Types are the constructs required to build a PaaS.  Each PaaS Element Type builds upon the previous, I’m not the first to come up with the overall concept of Types building upon one […]

A Viable PaaS Model

A Viable PaaS Model

By Dave McCrory on December 7, 2011

What makes a PaaS a PaaS? I’ve seen many discussions on blogs and twitter around this topic, so much so that many people are tired of talking about it because it always leads to cyclical discussions.  I for one haven’t been satisfied with any of the answers that I have seen.  Some people try to […]
