Lessons on Scale from Massive Enterprise Deployment.

Keywords: SaaS, scalability, mulit-tenancy, deployment, applications.
Authors: Tom Fisher, Vice President of Cloud Computing for SuccessFactors.
Abstract: Cloud computing enables unprecedented application scalability in global reach, volume and ubiquitous access. To achieve rapid, effective and secure application deployment at cloud scale, enterprises must now address new challenges unique to the cloud environment – building apps and infrastructure that are designed for scale from the start. In this talk, we’ll look at case studies of variable-size multi-tenant deployments ranging from a small office to arguably the largest enterprise cloud deployment in history – the 420,000-seat deployment of SuccessFactors software at Siemens AG. We’ll address how to evaluate your application and deployment environment and how to choose appropriate scalability strategies that fit user needs and technical constraints. Ultimately, participants will gain a strong technical foundation for building a flexible and user-driven cloud solution and a thorough understanding of the tools and approaches available.

Abstract:
cloud computing conference 2010There was a time when developers didn't do systems administration, sys admins didn't do development, and the rest of us didn't do either. That
time is past. In today’s world, the introduction of platform as a service
(PaaS) has spawned new capability for power business software users to
expand from merely utilizing an Excel spreadsheet or Access database to
actually building the software that can power business.

In my presentation, I will detail the empowerment provided by this new
realm of business software build environment. With platform as a service
cloud computing, businesses will be able to tailor their software to
particular business needs and enable vast levels of business process
automation.

I will cover the basics of cloud computing PaaS offerings, their benefits
and current drawbacks. And, to detail these benefits, I will use the
attached case study for Servolift. This company successfully built,
deployed and continue customizing their own custom software.
