AppSecute Launched In Beta With Revised Messaging

AppSecute Launched In Beta With Revised Messaging

By Krishnan Subramanian on October 24, 2012

AppSecute, the New Zealand based startup focussing on the PaaS space (disclosure: Fellow CloudAve blogger and friend Ben Kepes is an investor in the company but I have no relationship with them), recently launched in public beta with a changed messaging. AppSecute started out talking about federated PaaS which, even though was an interesting idea, […]

Gartner’s Latest IaaS Magic Quadrant Released–Meh With a Bit of Interesting

Gartner’s Latest IaaS Magic Quadrant Released–Meh With a Bit of Interesting

By Ben Kepes on October 22, 2012

I’m not usually big on Gartner’s crystal-ball-gazing Magic Quadrant methodology – some people claim it’s pay-for-play writ large. I don’t know about that, it just seems to be a somewhat hokey, albeit scientifically-based, prediction of what might occur or, more often, hat already is. Anyway – with that said, the latest IaaS MQ is pretty […]

TIBCO's Silver Fabric - a golden lining

TIBCO’s Silver Fabric – a golden lining

By Martijn Linssen on October 10, 2012

I attended TIBCO’s PaaS workshop, where they showed and demoed Silver Fabric – the product that has come forth from the DataSynapse acquisition in September 2009. Erik Hageman, Mario Invernizzi and Steven van der Kroftlead the session. The location was the Radisson Blu near Schiphol, a fine location with excellent service and food & drinks. After we had […]

Citrix, Cumulogic And PaaS Trends

Citrix, Cumulogic And PaaS Trends

By Krishnan Subramanian on September 17, 2012

Last week Citrix (previous CloudAve coverage) announced that Citrix Startup Accelerator, their incubator arm, will invest in the PaaS startup Cumulogic (previous CloudAve coverage). On the first look, this is not a significant news and many in tech media didn’t even bother to cover it like some of the other PaaS news around the industry. […]

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

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 …

CAMP: Will It Be Relevant?

CAMP: Will It Be Relevant?

By Krishnan Subramanian on September 4, 2012

Last week at CloudOpen 2012, a group of vendors in the platforms space announced a new set of specifications to help simplify management of applications in the public and private clouds. Called CAMP, these specifications are submitted to OASIS to develop it as an industry standard. The initial reaction from the industry and some cloud […]

rPath Press Release: False Promise of PaaS and Impact on Businesses

rPath Press Release: False Promise of PaaS and Impact on Businesses

By Krishnan Subramanian on August 31, 2012

To add context to the discussion and why I perceive rPath’s use of the term PaaS is actually a misuse of the term, I am posting a press release I got from them on May 9th 2012 with the above title and the content below. ################################################################## Is PaaS (Platform as a Service) an all-encompassing solution […]

rPath's Enterprise PaaS Is Not PaaS. Period.

rPath’s Enterprise PaaS Is Not PaaS. Period.

By Krishnan Subramanian on August 30, 2012

  rPath (previous CloudAve coverage) has been pushing their offering as Enterprise PaaS. Recently they briefed me on their announcement made this week around VMworld about Enterprise Cloud Adoption Framework. They unveiled this along with Cisco Systems as a way for enterprises to push their legacy applications to cloud. They are arguing that enterprises are […]

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 …

Engine Yard’s Evolution: Support For Node.js

By Krishnan Subramanian on August 21, 2012

Engine Yard (previous CloudAve coverage), one of the earliest PaaS players to enter the market, today announced the availability of Node.js support on their platform. This is the next step in the evolution of a company that started as a pure play Ruby on Rails PaaS player on AWS. The last few announcements clearly indicate that […]

East & West Coast PaaS, Being Polyglot, Reply to Dan Turkenkopf

By Adron Hall on August 13, 2012

Dan (he’s a good guy, check him out on Twitter @dturkenk), your “East Coast vs West Coast PaaS Psychology. And Why It Matters.” is great write up. Loved it! I’ve got to say, I’m pretty much in agreement with almost every single thing you’ve written here. Matter of fact I’m staunchly in agreement with a […]

Service Providers And PaaS

Service Providers And PaaS

By Krishnan Subramanian on August 2, 2012

As I push the themes of federated clouds and paas as the future of cloud services hard, people always question me about how these two seemingly disparate themes reconcile and how can I tie up different, seemingly, loose ends in my model. I will one day dust off my laziness and write about the big […]
