#I AM DEAD PLATFORMS CODE#

Somewhat later, thanks to Heroku and CloudFoundry (both excellent platforms), the term PaaS was sometimes used to describe a source code building and deployment environment. Definition 2: An Application Building and Deployment Tool In this parlance, APaaS is the same as Definition 3 below. Analysts occasionally still group all non-IaaS services into one PaaS category, which is then subdivided into segments such as DBaaS (Database as a Service) and APaaS (Application Platform as a Service). Therefore, hosted databases, message queues, and email services were all PaaS. We considered PaaS to be any service that ran atop Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Definition 1: Anything that Runs on IaaSīack in the early days of cloud, I worked at HP Cloud. We’ll look at two older definitions before focusing on the definition that seems to enjoy consensus use today. What is PaaS? The term was once a little ambiguous, though now a clear definition seems to have emerged.

Platform-as-a-Service: Definitions and Examples The conclusion is resoundingly clear: PaaS is a highly successful endeavor, alive and well, and likely to be so for quite some time. We’ll look at a few ideas of what failure is, apply them to PaaS, and then evaluate whether PaaS has failed. What frustrates me is that people are claiming this as if it were fact, but without evidence.

I am not bothered so much by the idea that PaaS might not have lived up to expectations. I am troubled by a few loud voices recently claiming that Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a failure.
