- 8. Bluemix Terminology CheatSheet Runtime A set of resources used to run your applications. We are demonstrating an XPages runtime for Domino (sometimes referred to as a Buildpack). Other popular runtimes/buildpacks are Node.js, Liberty for Java, Ruby, PHP etc. Service Services are add-ons that can be provisioned alongside your application. A service broker component advertises catalogs of managed services such as databases, key-value stores, messaging and so on. Apps can bind to one or more of such services. We are demonstrating a Domino NoSQL Data service that provisions NSFs, Domino IDs etc Boilerplates A container for an application and its associated runtime environment and predefined services e.g. a ready-to-go XPages ToDo application using a Domino NoSQL Data service

- #17 Apps Are Everywhere Over the last 5 or so years, we’ve experienced an “App Revolution” on the web, on our smartphones, in our cars, on wearable devices (like a NikeFuel band, Smart Watch, Google Glass), and in our homes. Apps today allow interactions that we wouldn't have imagined 5 years ago. Architects can design homes on their iPads, merchants can swipe credit cards and accept payments anywhere with their phones, and runners can track their progress with a band on their wrist. Even my mother knows the phrase “there’s an app for that.” Experience Matters All of the associated data (like a runner’s average speed and location over the course of a 30 minute run) is often times pushed up to the cloud (as it’s being generated) for further processing, storage, or to allow syncs other devices and services. Customers expect an integrated experience on the web, across all of their devices, in physical stores, and even talking with customer service on the phone. Cloud Makes it Possible Needless to say, the cloud has been a very large driving factor in the “App Revolution.” It provides a fast, simple, and cost effective way to for startups and enterprises alike to deploy and host applications and mobile backends over the internet. Apps can be stitched together quickly with pre-built assets exposed as APIs - cloud has made this possible. Simply put, cloud keeps all of us connected.
- #18 The instant power and speed of cloud has brought about new expectations for building applications on it. Developers now expect: To be able to deploy updates to their applications in seconds To write their code in whichever tool or language they choose Each has its own distinct “personality” and followings of developers have evolved around each of these To be able to continually integrate working copies of code into a shared mainline at multiple points during the day To focus on writing code, not on the administration of servers, virtualization, operating systems, and middleware. To “fail fast” - or ensure applications fail immediately and visibly to speed debugging and fixes To integrate useful APIs into their applications - who wants to write code that’s already been written and tested? To build applications that are mobile ready - as users today expect their experience to be tailored to whatever device they happen to be using.
- #19 Cloud Service Models: - Runtimes vs middleware & frameworks - IaaS - based on OpenStack standards & provided by SoftLayer - IaaS competitors include AWS, Heroku, Azure) Traditional/On-premise: IBM strategy is PureSystems, Pure Applications, PureData IaaS: Manage infrastructure resources in a resource pool, with self-service provisioning, rapid elasticity, and as measured services. Virtualization alone does not accomplish this vision and set of characteristics. After all infrastructure resources are provided and managed as a set of capacity services, the data center can be treated as a true software-defined environment Benefits Most control in the cloud. Necessary for some solutions. Infrastructure managed by SP Software defined environments is a hallmark of IaaS: - Expressing physical infrastructure as software services that can be manipulated and automated, programmatically. Overall infrastructure is always viewed and manipulated as a composite whole, not the network, storage, and compute as individual parts. Standards for building Software Defined Environments ensure portability, interoperability, and manageability of the software-defined environment. - The OpenStack Foundation has emerged as the most important consortium for the implementation of the software-defined environment by adopting many of the cross industry standards initiatives. SoftLayer is IBM’s BlueMix IaaS - provides a seamlessly unified global cloud computing infrastructure. It combines virtual public cloud instances, powerful bare metal servers, turnkey private clouds, and a broad range of storage, network and security devices, and services PaaS: The concept of composable solutions in a Cloud Operating Environment , which consists of finer grained services that can be recombined to create new capabilities, is a key element of the cloud. Composable environments can contain cloud services, which bring together operational, development, application, database, and third-party services – all with embedded monitoring and manageability capabilities. Developers can take advantage of these cloud services to quickly build new composable applications. These new applications are built as cloud-centric (designed for and deployed to the cloud) and for mobile-first UI/devices deployment Cloud Foundry is an open standard, open source Platform-as-a-Service framework and community founded by IBM and Pivotal in 2013. Cloud Foundry runs on a broad range of cloud infrastructure platforms, including OpenStack, Amazon Web Services (AWS), VMware, and IBM SoftLayer. It also supports a wide range of application programming language run times and frameworks including Java, Ruby, JavaScript, and Python. Cloud Foundry has a large, vibrant community ecosystem of partners, vendors, and users, enabling enterprises to develop cloud-centric applications based on its open standard without fear of vendor lock-in. SaaS: Modern applications are increasingly composed of a wide variety of composite services that are accessed through web-scale application programming interfaces (APIs) in order to access information and integrate with other applications. The rapid evolution and integration of social, mobile, web and traditional applications is fueling an increase in APIs. Composite applications leverage easily consumable APIs from internal and external providers across programming languages, runtimes and frameworks in a polyglot approach. The rapidly growth of APIs along with the consumerization of IT and applications is driving an economic model, where the consumption of the API may be tied to a fee or on-going subscription model, often referred to as the API economy. The explosion in APIs is fueling a dramatic shift in the business landscape where customers, business partners, vendors, and clients can directly participate in an enterprise's business processes and gain access to enterprise data, from both inside and outside of the enterprise. APIs offer a cost-effective way to provide access to large amounts of data and the enterprise can leverage sophisticated analytics that are available to increase the value of such data. BlueMix and SaaS strategy and value proposition: IBM is leveraging its middleware platforms, IBM PureSystems, IBM Worklight, OpenStack, and Cloud Foundry, to enable enterprises to build systems of interaction. Enterprises can build next generation applications using BlueMix to leverage the evolution of systems of interaction that take advantage of existing investments in middleware, packaged applications, line-of-business applications and business partner solutions – essentially systems of record – integrating with new cloud-centric services and applications – systems of engagement – deployed via Cloud delivery models for workload-optimized deployment. Tying together polyglot programming, marketplaces, DevOps, and open standards is what empowers the developer to bring more value to the enterprise faster. Strength of cloud platform and underlying infrastructure built on open standards such as OpenStack and CloudFoundry enables developers to rapidly develop, deploy, and scale applications and manage the application lifecycle. A robust ecosystem provides a rich library of easily consumable cloud services based on proven cloud technologies that can be simply composed into a solution that is deployed with minimal effort. Solutions that are composed from these proven services are able to be delivered to market faster and with higher quality, ultimately leading to better business outcomes.

- #23 Bluemix is built on top of IBM’s infrastructure as a service offering - SoftLayer. It embraces Cloud Foundry as an open source platform as a service and extends it with IBM, third party, and community built services. Explain Diagram (verbs in blue - please use this terminology) Start by Pushing your code through Cloud Foundry Cloud Foundry interprets which language you’ve used and associates your code to the appropriate runtime - now you have a working app (layer above runtimes). Your app can Pull prebuilt services (IBM, 3rd party, or community built) in from the marketplace and utilize their functionality Connect to traditional IT - aka “Your Systems” with a secure connector Connect to other clouds that you utilize with a secure connector All of this sits on infrastructure (networking, storage, servers) hosted by IBM Softlayer (IBM’s IaaS cloud offering) Finally - when your app is built and ready to go, it can be accessed by anything with a web browser and a connection to the internet, a smartphone app (via the Bluemix SDK) to utilize backend services, or another type of app or system (via an API you create).
- #25 We’ve seen over 30,000 beta applications thus far and have spoken to numerous developers about the value Bluemix provides. We’ve learned that developers are joining for 3 key reasons (go through reasons on the page). Rapid setup and time to production Frequent releases - delivery of fixes or new functionality quickly Integrating apps with on premise infrastructure
- #26 Automatic scaling service – define a policy – let it automanage itself 3 is the magic number is for scaling
