Platform as a Service (PaaS) provides developers with tools and services to build, run, and manage applications over the internet without having to manage the underlying infrastructure. PaaS handles servers, operating systems, storage, networking, and other services so developers can focus on developing and deploying applications. Common PaaS services include application runtime, messaging, data services, and application management. PaaS allows for efficient, cost-effective application development by abstracting away the complexity of infrastructure management.
Infrastructure as a Service ( IaaS) is one of the three fundamental services in cloud computing. IaaS provides access to basic computing resources such as hardware- processor, storage , network cards and more

Cloud computing means storing and accessing data and programs over the Internet instead of your computer's hard drive.In computer networking, cloud computing is a phrase used to describe a variety of computing concepts that involve a large number of computers connected through a real-time communication network such as the Internet.
Cloud computing :
Accessibility: Cloud computing facilitates the access of applications and data from any location worldwide and from any device with an internet connection.
Cost savings: Cloud computing offers businesses scalable computing resources hence saving them on the cost of acquiring and maintaining them.
Security: Cloud providers especially those offering private cloud services, have strived to implement the best security standards and procedures in order to protect client’s data saved in the cloud.
Disaster recovery: Cloud computing offers the most efficient means for small, medium, and even large enterprises to backup and restore their data and applications in a fast and reliable way.

Azure was announced in October 2008 and released on 1 February 2010 as Windows Azure, before being renamed to Microsoft Azure on 25 March 2014. Along with Amazon Web Services Azure is considered a leader in the IAAS field.
Microsoft Azure is an open and flexible cloud platform that enables you to quickly build, deploy, and manage applications across a global network of Microsoft-managed datacenters. You can build applications using any language, tool, or framework. And you can integrate your public cloud applications with your existing IT environment.
This definition tells us that Microsoft Azure is a cloud platform, which means you can use it for running your business applications, services, and workloads in the cloud. But it also includes some key words that tell us even more:
Open Microsoft Azure provides a set of cloud services that allow you to build and deploy cloud-based applications using almost any programming language, framework, or tool.
Flexible Microsoft Azure provides a wide range of cloud services that can let you do everything from hosting your company’s website to running big SQL databases in the cloud. It also includes different features that can help deliver high performance and low latency for cloud-based applications.
Microsoft-managed Microsoft Azure services are currently hosted in several datacenters spread across the United States, Europe, and Asia. These datacenters are managed by Microsoft and provide expert global support on a 24x7x365 basis.
Compatible Cloud applications running on Microsoft Azure can easily be integrated with on-premises IT environments that utilize the Microsoft Windows Server platform.
It provides both PAAS and IAAS services and supports many different programming languages, tools and frameworks, including both Microsoft-specific and third-party software and systems.
This is a brief introduction to Microsoft Azure cloud. I used these slides in an intro session for developers. I did few demos during the session that not included in the slide. Brand name and logos are properties of their respective owners.

Platform as a service (PaaS) is a category of cloud computing services that provides a computing platform and a solution stack as a service. Along with software as a service (SaaS) and infrastructure as a service (IaaS), it is a service model of cloud computing. In this model, the consumer creates an application or service using tools and/or libraries from the provider. The consumer also controls software deployment and configuration settings. The provider provides the networks, servers, storage, and other services that are required to host the consumer's application.
PaaS offerings facilitate the deployment of applications or services without the cost and complexity of buying and managing the underlying hardware and software and provisioning hosting capabilities.

Introduction to PaaS and demos on Cloud Foundry from a DevOps point of view.
Presented at the Singapore DevOps meetup of Sept 2012:
http://www.meetup.com/devops-singapore/events/80016202/
Container orchestration is the use of declarative configuration and imperative commands to deploy, provision, and execute containerized workloads. It automates the distribution of preprovisioned container images, injection of configuration, scheduling onto machines, lifecycle-management, and monitoring of applications, microservices, and jobs in the cloud. The orchestration space is fast moving and full of competing products, platforms, and frameworks. How do you choose the right one for your requirements?
Karl Isenberg explores the features of several container orchestrators—breaking down the feature sets and characteristics into categories, and scoring multiple solutions against each other while comparing them to other cloud platform layers like infrastructure (IaaS), applications platforms (PaaS), serverless architecture (FaaS), and distributed operating systems—to explain what functionality to look for in a container orchestrator, which products are good at which feature sets, and how you can apply this methodology in your research of other container orchestrators.
Donnie Berkholz will present an introduction to DevOps (updated for 2017!), then open it up to questions and discussion. Topics will include making microservices more easily adoptable, and that whole "serverless" thing. Wherever you are in your DevOps journey, there will be something for you in this meetup session.
A Gentle Introduction To Docker And All Things ContainersJérôme Petazzoni
Docker is a runtime for Linux Containers. It enables "separation of concern" between devs and ops, and solves the "matrix from hell" of software deployment. This presentation explains it all! It also explains the role of the storage backend and compares the various backends available. It gives multiple recipes to build Docker images, including integration with configuration management software like Chef, Puppet, Salt, Ansible. If you already watched other Docker presentations, this is an actualized version (as of mid-November 2013) of the thing!
Microservices, Containers, Docker and a Cloud-Native Architecture in the Midd...Kai Wähner
Microservices are the next step after SOA: Services implement a limited set of functions. Services are developed, deployed and scaled independently. Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery automate deployments. This way you get shorter time to results and increased flexibility. Containers improve these even more offering a very lightweight and flexible deployment option.
In the middleware world, you use concepts and tools such as an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), Complex Event Processing (CEP), Business Process Management (BPM) or API Gateways. Many people still think about complex, heavyweight central brokers here. However, Microservices and containers are relevant not just for custom self-developed applications, but they are also a key requirement to make the middleware world more flexible, agile and automated.
This session discusses the requirements, best practices and challenges for creating a good Microservices architecture in the middleware world. A live demo with the open source PaaS framework CloudFoundry shows how technologies and frameworks such as Java, SOAP / REST Web Services, Jenkins and Docker are used to create an agile software development lifecycle to realize “Middleware Microservices”. It also discusses other modern cloud-native alternatives such as Kubernetes, Docker, Mesos, Mesosphere or Amazon ECS / AWS.
Video: https://youtu.be/C_u4_l84ED8
Karl Isenberg reviews the history of distributed computing, clarifies terminology for layers in the container stack, and does a head to head comparison of several tools in the space, including Kubernetes, Marathon, and Docker Swarm. Learn which features and qualities are critical for container orchestration and how you can apply this knowledge when evaluating platforms.
Software as a Service (SaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and Platform as a Service (PaaS) are the three service models of cloud computing, each built to address specific business requirements.
What are cloud service models, advantage of IAAS, advantages of PAAS, advantage of SAAS, What are cloud service models, What is IAAS, What is PAAS, what is SAAS
Storage-as-a-Service:Advantages:
You can expand the amount of disk space available as you need it and pay only for what you use.
You do not have to maintain the hardware.
Provides the disaster recovery system for you, and getting back deleted files or entire directories is part of the service.
Disadvantages:
You are dependent on the Internet as the mechanism to connect to your storage-as-a-service provider, and if the network goes down, you lose that connection.
Performance can be an issue.
The cost of the storage-as-a-service provider can be prohibitive when compared with an on-premise solution. Database-as-a-Service:Benefits:
The ability to avoid hardware and software costs by leveraging a remote database that you use as you need it and just what you need to use.
Database maintenance, including backing up and restoring the database and managing users, can be avoided through the use of database-as-a-service.
You can avoid the task of doing upgrades and bug fixes to the database.
Drawbacks:
There are legal, compliancy, and privacy issues around data, and in some instances, leveraging remote databases is illegal and/or not within compliance for some types of data.
Security can be an issue when using database-as-a-service.
Many of the interfaces offered by database-as-a-service providers are proprietary in nature and thus can be difficult to leverage from applications that need to access the data.
Offer only a subset of the capabilities found in traditional on-premise enterprise databases.
Information-as-a-Service: the ability to consume any type of remotely hosted information—stock price information, address validation, credit reporting, for example—through a well-defined interface such as an API
You can leverage a wide variety of Web APIs these days, including APIs for social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook, for business statistics, for stock quotes, and the list goes on.
Process-as-a-Service: a remote resource that can bind many resources together, either hosted within the same cloud computing resource or remotely, to create business processes .
Processes are meta-applications that bind many services and information together to form a business solution.
Eg. Process “Ship Product”
1. Transmit order to warehouse.
2. Process shipping provider.
3. Price shipping.
4. Turn over to shipping provider.
5. Track shipment.
6. Report to customer.
Application-as-a-Service:They typically offer:
A user interface.
Predefined application behaviour.
Predefined data.
Support for any number of client platforms, since they run through the browser.
Eg. Salesforce SFA, office automation applications are indeed applications-as-a-service as well, including Google Docs, Gmail, and Google Calendar. Advantages:
The ability to leverage an enterprise-class application without having to buy and install enterprise software.
Platform-as-a-Service:
The Webinar takes participants through the entire cloud migration life-cycle – from initial analysis to final migration. We evaluate the leading cloud DBMS offerings from Amazon, Microsoft and Oracle. We also compare IaaS and DBaaS to better understand the two architectures and identify the most appropriate use case for each platform.
We finish by providing RDX’s recommended database migration procedures and the vendor utilities you can leverage to ensure trouble-free cloud transitions. Learn from experts who have migrated dozens of on-premises systems to the cloud!
SOA is a manufacturing model which deals with designing and building software by applying the service oriented computing principles to software solutions, while SaaS is a model for sales and distribution of software applications.
Comprehensive Information on Platform as a ServiceHTS Hosting
Platform as a service (PaaS) is a type of cloud service model. In PaaS a platform is delivered by a service provider to its clients for the purpose of developing, running and managing applications without having to build and maintain the necessary infrastructure.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

3. PaaS in Cloud Computing
• Includes services for developing
and deploying applications.
• It is an abstracted and integrated
cloud-based computing
environment that supports the
development, running, and
management of applications.
• A primary value of a PaaS
environment is that developers
don’t have to be concerned with
some of the lower-level details of
the environment. You can look at
a software stack as a pyramid:
4. What is PaaS ?
• PaaS, is a category of cloud computing that provides a platform and environment
to allow developers to build applications and services over the Internet.
• A “cloud aware” application development and deployment environment.
• An abstraction layer between your cloud application and your IaaS provider.
• PaaS services are hosted in the cloud and accessed by users simply via their web
browser.
• Fundamentally provides elastic scaling of your application.
• Deployments include public, private and hybrid cloud configurations.
• Example PaaS services:
Data services,
Application runtime,
Messaging & queueing,
Application management.
5. PaaS
• Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a way to rent hardware, operating
systems, storage and network capacity over the Internet.
• The service delivery model allows the customer to rent virtualized
servers and associated services for running existing applications or
developing and testing new ones.
• It is an outgrowth of SaaS, a software distribution model in which
hosted software applications are made available to customers over
the Internet.
6. PaaS Goal
• Create an abstracted environment that supports an efficient, cost-effective,
and repeatable process for the creation and deployment of high-quality
applications.
• Focus on Development, not Ops
• Programmers’ development environment
• Presentation layer: HTML, CSS, JavaScript
• Control layer: Web Server code
• Data layer: Data Model
• Optionally, analytics
• Ops below
• Made visible through a web interface
• Operating system
• File system
• User authentication
• Utilities (cron, etc.)
• Logs
• Database maintenance, backups, etc.
7. How PaaS works
• Platform as a Service allows users to create software applications
using tools supplied by the provider.
• PaaS services can consist of preconfigured features that customers
can subscribe to; they can choose to include the features that meet
their requirements while discarding those that do not.
• The infrastructure and applications are managed for customers and
support is available.
• Services are constantly updated, with existing features upgraded and
additional features added.
8. PaaS does that
• PaaS enables an organization to do the following:
• Leverage key middleware services without having to deal with the
complexities of managing individual hardware and software
elements.
• Access a complete stack of development and deployment tools via a
web browser, a middleware environment where APIs can be used to
plug into selected development and deployment tools. A developer
might also leverage a full desktop development environment.
• Overcome the challenges of managing lots of individual development
and deployment tools by providing a suite of integrated and
standardized tools — operating systems, security products, and the
like — that meet company requirements.
9. Payment
• As with most cloud offerings, PaaS services are generally paid for on a
subscription basis with clients ultimately paying just for what they
use.
• Clients also benefit from the economies of scale that arise from the
sharing of the underlying physical infrastructure between users, and
that results in lower costs.
10. PaaS offers
• Below are some of the features that can be included with a PaaS
offering:
• Operating system
• Server-side scripting environment
• Database management system
• Server Software
• Support
• Storage
• Network access
• Tools for design and development
• Hosting
11. Who can use PaaS services?
• Software developers, web developers and businesses can benefit
from PaaS.
• For example, web developers can use individual PaaS environments
at every stage of the process to develop, test and ultimately host their
websites. However, businesses that are developing their own internal
software can also utilise Platform as a Service, particularly to create
distinct ring-fenced development and testing environments.
12. Seperation of Duties
• Development and infrastructure teams often clash when building
software.
• Ideally, there is a clear separation of duties and clean handoffs.
13.
14. Evolving from different standards
• Evolving “upwards” from IaaS
• Amazon (Mail, Notification, Events, Databases, Workflow, etc.)
• Evolving “downwards” from SaaS
• Force.com – a place to host additional per-tenant logic.
• Google App Engine
• Evolving “sideways” from middleware platforms
• WSO2, Tibco, vmWare, Oracle, IBM
16. What do I care about (As a developer) ?
• My code – running
• Not a “VM” but a Virtual App Server
• Not just code
• I like Queues and Topics, ESB flows, Workflows, Databases, Logs, Portals, etc.
• Not just Runtime
• I like SVN, Git, build, continuous integration, code coverage, automated test
• Moreover, if you are a manager of a group of developers, you
probably like governance.
17. Beginning to use PaaS
• One of the decisions you need to make when beginning to use a PaaS
is whether you want to maintain the software or if you want the
vendor to be the administrator.
18. Maintain the software yourself
• If you choose to maintain the software yourself, you must set up,
configure, maintain, and administer the PaaS yourself (either on a
public or private cloud).
19. Let the vendor be the administrator
• Alternatively, you can have the vendor to provide these services. The
result is reduced friction between the development and deployment
teams. There will, of course, be situations in which it’s critical for the
internal team to control and manage a complex software
environment.
20. Best Practices
• Start with the data, and work up to the services and UI. No matter
what the PaaS provider suggests.
• Define a staging and testing strategy before you begin development.
• Consider SOA approaches in the design and deployment of the PaaS-
bases application.
• Make sure to do load testing along with functional testing.
• Make sure to model performance.
• Don’t fall in love with a PaaS player, you may need to use several.
21. Primary Benefits of PaaS
• Lower development costs (%30+)
• Lower deployment and DevOps costs (Nearly eliminate)
• Application portability (depends on the PaaS)
22. Benefits for Developers
• Below are some of the benefits of PaaS to application developers:
• They don’t have to invest in physical infrastructure (being able to ‘rent’ virtual infrastructure)
• They don’t have to be concerned with some of the lower-level details of the
environment.
• Makes development possible for ‘non-experts’
• Flexibility
• Adaptability
• Teams in various locations can work together
• Security
