Platform as a Service (PaaS) represents the next evolution of the cloud and it’s revolutionizing the way organizations build software. By delivering off-the-shelf cloud-based platforms, PaaS empowers developers to write, test and deploy innovative software without relying on IT or operations staff. However, businesses shouldn’t move to PaaS without a plan for data security, availability, disaster recovery, etc.
In this webinar, we’ll address the issues that businesses, both large and small, need to consider when creating and executing a PaaS strategy. This includes identifying development and business requirements; understanding the current PaaS marketplace; picking the first project; and, importantly, how PaaS will alter existing roles.
