Dreams Of my childhood3

Accelerando / Singularity, in a Galaxy far far away§ Even if we automate ourselves out of a job every 10 years§ ...I don’t think the singularity is near!4

Moores Law is for Hardware Only§ Does not apply to software§ Productivity gains not keeping up with hardware and bandwidth§ Writing software is hard, painful, and still very much a craft5

Predictions “The future is already here — its just not very evenly distributed” William Gibson6

Architecture Changes: 60’s Mainframe

Architecture Changes: 80’s Client-Server

Architecture Changes: 90’s Web

Architecture Changes: 2010’s Cloud, HTML5, Mobile

Back to Client Server: Groovy Baby!11

What is Cloud Computing? Cloud According to my daughter Eliette12

Cloud Stack - Classic Pyramid Software As A Service Platform As A Service Infrastructure As A Service13

Cloud Stack - By Value Software As A Service Platform As A Service Infrastructure As A Service14

Cloud Stack - History§ What does cloud mean, 4 main angles • Software 1994 Netscape • Infrastructure 2002 Amazon AWS • Platform 2008 Google • Development now! § Industrialization of hardware and software infrastructure like electricity beginning of 20th century§ But software development itself is moving towards craftmanship15

Cloud started at Consumer websites solving their needs• Google, Amazon, Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter• Large Data Sets• Storage Capacity growing faster than Moore’s Law• Fast Networks• Vertical -> Horizontal scalability• Open Source Software• Virtualization• Cloud is a productization of these infrastructures • Public Clouds Services: Google, Amazon • Open Source Software: Hadoop, Eucalyptus, Ubuntu, Cloud Foundry

Infrastructure17

IaaS/Virtualization getting mainstream§ AWS, Joyent, Rackspace,...§ Open Source projects: OpenStack, DeltaCloud, Eucalyptus§ Automation: Chef, Juju, Cloud Foundry BOSH§ Standardization? DMTF§ Inside the Firewall, Virtualization: VMware, Microsoft, Xen, KVM§ 50% of workloads are virtualized§ Easy to provision, manage instance...BUT§ Still need to manage backups, software stacks, monitor, upgrades18

With Infrastructure, you still need to build your own platform§ Need to build a distributed platform on top of you infrastructure§ Story of the AWS meltdown from last summer • http://blog.reddit.com/2011/03/why-reddit-was-down-for-6-of-last-24.html • http://www.readwriteweb.com/cloud/2010/12/chaos-monkey-how-netflix-uses.php • http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2477296 • http://stu.mp/2011/04/the-cloud-is-not-a-silver-bullet.html§ Twilio, Smugmug, SimpleGeo survived it because they built their own distributed platform on top of IaaS§ Enterprise customers want to consider Infrastructure like CDNs • Multi Cloud usage • Based on Open Source de facto standards, or full standards whenever that happens19

Platforms20

Platforms§ Raise the Unit of currency to be application & services instead of infrastructure§ Google App Engine, Cloud Foundry, Heroku, CloudBees, Amazon Elastic Beanstalk, Microsoft Azure, AppFog§ Single or a few languages, services§ Start of Multi language Polyglot platforms§ Enabler for Agile Developers -> Create Business value faster§ Lack of standards: risk, vendor lock-in§ Enterprise needs: • Control, customizability • Private/Hybrid Cloud21

Agile Development Processes

Agility as a survival skill§ Consumer software is becoming like fashion • Phone apps, social apps, short lifetime, fast lifecycles • A/B testing§ Enterprise • Clay shirky situational apps§ Kent Beck, Usenix 2011 Talk, “Software G-Forces: the effects of acceleration” change in software process when frequency grows§ Cloud Platforms enables an Agile culture, driver for innovation • Scalability is built in the platforms • Can iterate faster23

Main Risk: Lock-In Welcome to the hotel california Such a lovely place Such a lovely face Plenty of room at the hotel california Any time of year, you can ﬁnd it here Last thing I remember, I was Running for the door I had to ﬁnd the passage back To the place I was before ’relax,’ said the night man, We are programmed to receive. You can checkout any time you like, But you can never leave!24

Lessons for Developers26

Predictions • Software is becoming like fashion, design rules • Welcome to Babel, use the best tool for the job, embrace multiple language & heterogeneity • Our jobs will change, build yourself out of your current job • Sysadmin jobs will morph, there will be less of them • Many opportunities open when you embrace change27

Things to forget • First normal form • Waterfall model • Single server deployment • Single language skill • Build everything from scratch • Build custom infrastructure28

Things to learn • Agile • Take risks, fail often, fail fast and learn • API Design: create the API first • UI Design, Javacript, HTML5, CSS3 • A/B Testing • Open Source, Open Standards • Architecture, Distributed Computing (CAP theorem, 8 fallacies) • Cloud Platforms and APIs • Multiple types of languages (imperative, object, functional, logic) • Ability to encapsulate domain knowledge in a DSL • Build on the shoulders of giants: reuse, REST APIs • Pick your battles, choose what you need to build yourself to add value • Learn to live in a box (embrace platform limitations) to think outside the box • Use an App Store for distribution29

The Open Platform as a Service Deploy and scale applications in seconds, without locking yourself into a single cloud30

“I just want to deploy my code…”31

What if… target <any cloud> push <my app> bind <my services> instances <my app> +100 32

What’s Happening with Applications Today?Frameworks are what really matter • Developer productivity and innovation • Reduce time to marketNew application types • Mobile, Social, SaaS • Apps released early and oftenData intensive • Emerging requirements: elasticity, multi-cloud • Web orientation drives exponential data volumesDeployed on virtual and cloud infrastructures • Virtualization, Cloud, PaaS33

Why Cloud Foundry?Developer Agility • Friction-free way to develop, test and deploy applications • Focus on writing applications, not meddling with middleware and infrastructurePortability without changes • Write once, test-scale-deploy to private/public clouds without code changes • Quickly build and test on a laptop and scale to the cloudOpen - The freedom to choose • Choice of clouds for deployment, industry frameworks, and application services • Extensible architecture to “future proof” for rapid cloud innovation • Community open-source project - access, evaluate and contribute35
