Introduction To Platform as a Service
 
Java based Platform as a Service (PaaS) can transform your development, governance, and service level management activities.  PaaS can serve as a solid foundation for running IT as a business, increasing agility, optimizing budgets, and reducing time to market.  IT professionals require a clear adoption roadmap and evaluation framework, which maximizes Cloud characteristics, adds architecture components, enhances infrastructure capabilities, and improves IT practices. 
 
Chris Haddad will explain cloud characteristics, cloud architecture, and Platform as a Service (PaaS) capabilities.  He will describe:
How to evaluate Java Platform as a Service offerings
How to establish a roadmap guiding PaaS projects
How to quickly deliver a proof of concept demonstrating Platform as a Service benefits
