This is not a ‘PaaS Introduction’ presentation. This presentation tries to
give more ‘links and pointers’ towards the PaaS future – or emerging
technologies. Latest news segments are included to it for good reading.
3. Introduction to Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)
Platform as a service (PaaS) is a category of
cloud computing services that provides a
platform allowing customers to develop, run,
and manage Web applications without the
complexity of building and maintaining the
infrastructure typically associated with
developing and launching an app.
PaaS can be delivered: as a public cloud service
from a provider, or in private data centers as a
service managed by internal IT or hybrid
model.
Cloud applications and data platforms are part
of the PaaS offerings.
7. 1. Containers
Operating-system-level virtualization is a server-virtualization method where the kernel of an operating system
allows for multiple isolated user-space instances, instead of just one. Such instances called containers, may look and
feel like a real server from the point of view of its owners and users.
8. Containers
PaaS or IaaS, everything's about CONTAINERS now
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/06/25/red_hat_goes_container_crazy/
Docker is a key enabler in PaaS and very popular.
Even the virtualization King VMWare Preps its virtualization stack for Docker
http://www.computerworld.com/article/2912136/virtualization/
vmware-preps-its-virtualization-stack-for-docker.html
Docker death blow to PaaS? The fat lady isn’t singing just yet folks
Could they work together? Yeah, why not
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/06/01/did_docker_kill_paas/
Part of Gartner’s Hype Curve - Micro-datacentre: Whereas an average container-based datacenter hosts dozens of servers and
thousands of virtual machines (VMs) within a 40ft shipping container, a micro-datacentre includes fewer than 10 servers and less
than 100 VMs in a single 19in box. Just like containerized datacenters, MDCs come with in-built security systems, cooling systems
and flood and fire protection -http://www.computerweekly.com/feature/Micro-datacentre-What-IT-problems-it-solves-and-what-
workload-systems-is-it-best-suited-for
Part of Gartner’s Hype Curve - Hybrid Cloud Computing - As organizations attempt to strike a balance between having all
computational services on premises and offloading storage and computational time to the cloud, a logical middle ground has
emerged: the hybrid cloud - http://www.zdnet.com/article/hybrid-cloud-what-it-is-why-it-matters/

12. 2. Data Bases
A database is an organized collection of data. It is the collection of schemes, tables, queries, reports, views and
other objects. The data is typically organized to model aspects of reality in a way that supports processes requiring
information, such as modelling the availability of rooms in hotels in a way that supports finding a hotel with vacancies.
13. SQL (Relational Database-as-a-Service - RDS)
DBaaS vs. PaaS - https://blogs.oracle.com/realworldcloudplatform/entry/database_as_a_service_and
Database Cloud and the Transformation of PaaS - http://data-informed.com/database-cloud-and-the-transformation-
of-paas/
The three leading relational vendors -- Oracle, IBM and Microsoft -- all offer in-memory capabilities in the latest
versions of their DBMS’es.
Microsoft in-Memory OLTP (In-Memory Optimization) - https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-in/library/dn133186.aspx

http://searchdatamanagement.techtarget.com/feature/Which-in-memory-DBMS-best-fits-your-companys-needs
Pivotal is taking on Oracle’s traditional database business with its latest effort to advance open source. The company is
contributing both HAWQ advanced SQL on Hortonworks’ Hadoop analytics and MADlib machine learning technologies
to The Apache Software Foundation (ASF). http://www.cio-today.com/article/index.php?story_id=1310047VB758
14. NoSQL (Database-as-a-Service)
Ten standout NoSQL to try - http://www.infoworld.com/article/2606556/nosql/10-standout-nosql-databases-to-
try.html - There are several NoSQL players in cloud – Redis, Cassandra, Riak, MongoDB, CouchDB, OracleNoSQL,
Neo4J, DynamoDB, RethinkDB, etc.
Note:
Apple's secret NoSQL sauce includes a hefty dose of Cassandra
http://www.techrepublic.com/article/apples-secret-nosql-sauce-includes-a-hefty-dose-of-cassandra/
A year ago, Apple said that it was running over 75,000 Cassandra nodes, storing more than 10 petabytes of data. At
least one cluster was over 1,000 nodes, and Apple regularly gets millions of operations per second (reads/writes) with
Cassandra. In the real world, is that Cassandra is good for applications that must always be on (e.g., for online
transactions) or high-scale applications (like British Gas using Cassandra to store IoT sensor data and make it available
immediately for analysis).

15. In-memory PaaS – (e.g: SAP HANA)
SAP HANA is an in-memory computing platform that has completely transformed the relational database industry.
It combines database, application processing, and integration services on a single platform. The same architecture also
provides libraries for predictive, planning, text processing, spatial, and business analytics. It is more than a Database.
http://go.sap.com/india/solution/in-memory-platform.html
16. 3. Big Data Analytics
Big data is a broad term for data sets so large or complex that traditional data processing applications are inadequate.
The term often refers simply to the use of predictive analytics or other certain advanced methods to extract value from
data, and seldom to a particular size of data set.
17. Hadoop
Top trends in Big Data – BigData on Cloud, Sophisticated ETL, SQL on Hadoop – like Apache Hive, NoSQL,
Datafication, multipolar analytics, fluid analytics, Data Lakes – incremental organic model of building large scale data
set. http://www.zdnet.com/article/2015-interesting-big-data-and-analytics-trends/

systems will optimize themselves so quickly, human intervention may become superfluous

20. 4. Machine Learning
Machine learning is a subfield of computer science that evolved from the study of pattern recognition and
computational learning theory in artificial intelligence. Machine learning explores the study and construction of
algorithms that can learn from and make predictions on data.
21. Open Source Machine Learning
More importantly, machine learning (ML) is quickly becoming a critical skill for developers to enhance their
applications and their careers, better understand data, and to help users be more effective.
Getting started with open source machine learning: projects available are – Weka, Mahout, MLLib, Scikit-learn,

27. 7. Compliance
Compliance is either a state of being in accordance with established guidelines or specifications, or the process of becoming so.
Software, for example, may be developed in compliance with specifications created by a standards body, and then deployed by
user organizations in compliance with a vendor's licensing agreement. The definition of compliance can also encompass efforts
to ensure that organizations are abiding by both industry regulations and government legislation.

29. 8. DevOps
DevOps is a software development method that emphasizes communication, collaboration (information sharing and web service
usage), integration, automation, and measurement of cooperation between software developers and other IT professionals. The
method acknowledges the interdependence of software development, quality assurance (QA), and IT operations, and aims to
help an organization rapidly produce software products and services and to improve operations performance.
30. DevOps

31. 9. Mobile PaaS
Mobile PaaS (mPaaS) provides development capabilities for mobile app designers and developers. Mobile Backend as a service
(MBaaS), also known as "backend as a service" (BaaS), is a model for providing web and mobile app developers with a way
to link their applications to backend cloud storage and APIs exposed by back end applications while also providing features such
as user management, push notifications, and integration with social networking services.
