Interested in leveling up on your Cloud Foundry skills? Join IBM for Cloud Foundry Days on June 7 at Cloud Expo New York at the Javits Center in New York City. Cloud Foundry Days is a free half day educational conference and networking event. Come find out why Cloud Foundry is the industry's fastest-growing and most adopted cloud application platform.
Opening Remarks/Welcome
3:30-3:40 PM
Dr. Michael Maximilien, Research Scientist, IBM
The Makers of Marvels: How Developers Are Rebuilding the Enterprise, One Brick at a Time
3:40-4:00 PM
Chip Childers, CTO Cloud Foundry Foundation
History teaches us that astonishing feats occur not when a singular leader envisions them, but when a mass of skilled workers collaborates to transform that vision into something material. The Pyramids of Giza, for example, were not built overnight by a Pharaoh, but constructed by tens of thousands of workers over a period of years. Today's "pyramid" is quite a bit smaller, but a wonder of the world in its own right: The iPhone has transformed the world as we know it - but most of its power comes from the app store, which offers thousands of apps created from the imaginations of thousands of developers. These developers are the makers of marvels in our time. They instantiate the very concept of digital transformation - that notion of infrastructure disruption and re-assembly on the mind of every CIO. Business development is driven by software development, and software development is shaped by developers in the open source community. In his talk, Chip Childers empowers developers to think of themselves as the doers and makers who hold the key to unlocking digital transformation. He will cover the importance of diversity among developers for the technology industry to evolve and to reflect its user base, and will highlight the key open source concepts and technologies powering this trans-industrial transformation.
CF Serverless: Cloud Foundry as a Platform for Serverless Computing
4:00-4:30 PM
Dr. Michael Maximilien, Research Scientist and Dr. Nima Kaviani, Cloud Engineer, IBM
As CloudFoundry matures to become the de-facto platform for enterprise cloud computing, it is no surprise that various types of computing services need to be supported. Server-less computing is a new name for various previous concepts or technologies, e.g. functors, functional programming. In this model of computing, applications are written as a series of small functions with clear input and output and can be executed in the cloud on demand. The difference between this approach and eg. micro-services is that the backend part only executes when invoked. In this talk we compare and contrast possible approaches to make CF a first class platform for server-less computing. We explore retrofitting the current CF app push model, leverage open source server less platforms like OpenWhisk, and investigate how the CF runtime (Diego) could be improved to support server less apps as on-off tasks.
Break- 4:30-4:45 PM
What Is Your Multi-Cloud Strategy?
Tushar Dadlani, Cloud Ops Engineer, Pivotal
4:45-5:15 PM
Are you afraid that your cloud provider will increase costs? Can you move your application workloads between the public and private cloud seamlessly? Adopting a strategy centered on cloudfoundry has enabled a number of Fortune 500 companies in accelerating innovation. Come to the talk to hear Tushar speak about how cloudfoundry is used seamlessly across multiple cloud providers. He will also present a variety of multi-cloud use cases and strategies that can be realized with cloudfoundry.
Cloud Foundry Ripple Effect
Juan Pablo Genovese, Cloud Foundry Practice Lead, Altoros
5:15-6:15 PM
At this talk, Juan Pablo Genovese, Cloud Foundry Practice Lead of Altoros, will explore how Cloud Foundry impacted organizations and how they have managed to transform by adopting it.
