Apprenda Enterprise PaaS

Patriek van Dorp, Sales Engineer [email protected]

Enabling the Application Centric Enterprise

APPRENDA.COM

Enterprise Software Development

➔ High pressure for fast delivery of new

business critical application features

➔ No knowledge of infrastructure matters

➔ IT Operations is often seen as an inhibitor

for innovation

APPRENDA.COM

Public Cloud

➔ Facilitates fast delivery of IT resources

➔ BUT incourages shadow IT

➔ IT Operations is losing control and

overview

➔ The boundary between Infrastructure

and Development gets blurred

Two Types of Applications

APPRENDA.COM

Commercial-Off-The-Shelf Applications

Custom Developed Applications

➔ No competitive advantage

➔ Requirements defined outside the Enterprise

➔ Longer release cycles mean less deployments

➔ Well-suited for template-based deployment with tools like CliqR

➔ The competitive currency of the Application Centric Enterprise

➔ Requirements defined inside the Enterprise

➔ Short release cycles to bring new business critical application

features quickly

➔ Deployed with deployed using Application Lifecycle Management

tooling like Jenkins, TFS or UrbanCode

➔ Developers leverage Cisco ACI or

Metapod without any new

networking or infrastructure

expertise

➔ Networking team can onboard

applications without the need to

understand the application

➔ Developers can create instances

of 3rd-party solutions (e.g.

Hadoop, Cassandra, MongoDB,

etc.) without having to know the

details of installing those

solutions.

➔ Applications are automatically

provisioned, workflows are

commoditized

➔ Offer ACI capabilities in a fully

automated and governed way to

developers

➔ Offer self-service capabilities to

Developers

➔ On-board existing estate of

applications without the need to

re-code/re-factor the applications

➔ ACI easy accessible for all custom

application workloads

MicroservicesOnly Enterprise PaaS That Covers Existing and New Architectures

Microservices – rebranding of SOA that eschewsESB in favor of dumb pipes with smart nodesand emphasizes fully self contained applications (including localized data tiers).

• Should support microservices, monolithic and other apps in single PaaS

• Helps developers make smart endpoints that use dumb pipes through bootstrap

• Support Dockerfiles which will be the standard in the future – not BuildPacks
