Monday 30th September, meet at 6pm for 6:30 start. (note: the building is locked at 6:30pm)
Geoff Bowers is the founder of WebDU, the owner of web heavyweight Daemon and a Grade A Ubergeek. Cloudbees, Heroku, Google AppEngine, Amazon Beanstalk and more -- they're all PaaS (aka "platform as a service"). Get to grips with why PaaS are awesome, and the problems you might face building cloud friendly apps that run on them. Geoff takes a quick journey through running your own physical servers, infrastructure as a service (IaaS), scripting infrastructure (with stuff like Chef & Vagrant) to why the Daemonites are gravitating to the "platform as a service" or PaaS. With a dose of theory upfront, Geoff will try a bit of hands on tinkering with the Cloudbees Java PaaS running Railo CFML. If you're not into Cloudbees|Java|Railo, there's plenty of interesting tidbits for anyone interested in building an app in a PaaS supporting their favourite languages (including Java, Ruby, Python and others). NOTE: there's no food or drinks as Adobe seems to be no longer funding it. We'll strive to finish early enough to adjourn to the Lord Nelson for food and drinks. Of course, we are open to anyone who wishes to sponsor groups food and drinks. Just let me (Chris) know. Please RSVP anyway. Venue provided by RocketBoots.
