Introduction: Recently, Google announced Google App Engine, another announcement in the rapidly growing world of cloud computing. This brings up some very serious questions: 1. If we want to take advantage of one of the clouds, are we doomed to be locked-in for life? 2. Must we re-write our existing applications to use the cloud? 3. Do we need to learn a brand new technology or language for the cloud? This post presents a pattern that will enable us to abstract our application code from the underlying cloud provider infrastructure. This will enable us to easily migrate our EXISTING applications to cloud based environment thus avoiding the need for a complete re-write.

Introduction: Loved those mainframe days – you only needed one, but then came along the AS400’s and soon you had ten – but wait, you needed client server and SOA, oh sh%# – now I have ten thousand servers and I need to consolidate server and datacenter operations! Is Cloud Computing going to follow the same path? As a technology strategist I have the benefit of frequently speaking with other CIO’s on the topic of Cloud Computing. Often those discussions are in context to how they can leverage SpringCM’ s easy, fast and affordable cloud Enterprise Content Management (ECM) services. But those conversations are done in context to the overall strategy and reality that the modern CIO will use a combination of cloud offerings to solve business problems today. Some of those services will be internally provided (Private Cloud), and many more will be outside the traditional corporate domain, also known as Public Cloud services. What options do I have? In a recent conversation with a CIO represen

Introduction: Update 2: Rumor no more. Google Jumps Head First Into Web Services With Google App Engine . The quick and dirty of it: developers simply upload their Python code to Google, launch the application, and can monitor usage and other metrics via a multi-platform desktop application. There were 10,000 developer slots open and of course I was too late. More as the cobra strikes. Update: TechCrunch reports Google To Launch BigTable As Web Service next week. It competes with Amazon's SimpleDB. Though it won't be truly comparable until they also release an EC2 and S3 equivalent. An internet hit for each data access is a little painful. As Jimmy says in Goodfellas, "That's the way. You don't take no sh*t from nobody. " First Dave Winer hallucinates a pig on the mean streets of Walnut Creek that told him Google's long foretold cloud offering will be free for bloggers of "modest needs." GigaOM then says a free cloud service is how Google could eat Amazon's bacon for lunch .

Introduction: A series of recent surveys on the subject seems to indicate that this is indeed the case: Research conducted by HP found that the majority of businesses in the EMEA region are planning to move their mission-critical apps to the cloud. Of the 940 respondents, 80 percent revealed plans to move mission-critical apps at some point over the next two to five years. A more recent survey, by research firm MeriTalk and sponsored by VMware and EMC (NYSE: EMC ), showed that one-third of respondents say they plan to move some mission-critical applications to the cloud in the next year. Within two years, the IT managers said they will move 26 percent of their mission-critical apps to the cloud, and in five years, they expect 44 percent of their mission-critical apps to run in the cloud. The Challenge - How to Bring Hundreds of Enterprise Apps to the Cloud The reality is that cloud economics only start making sense when there are true workloads that utilize the cloud inf

Introduction: Where do you draw the line between scalability vs Performance vs High Availability vs Reliability? I guess at the end of the day, we all want to be highly available, great performance and always reliable. So is it safe to say that scalability is the answer ? Also when do you start to think scale out vs scale up ?
3 0.88045639 1056 high scalability-2011-06-09-Retrospect on recent AWS outage and Resilient Cloud-Based Architecture
Introduction: A bit over a month ago Amazon experienced its infamous AWS outage in the US East Region. As a cloud evangelist, I was intrigued by the history of the outage as it occurred. There were great posts during and after the outage from those who went down. But more interestingly for me as architect were the detailed posts of those who managed to survive the outage relatively unharmed, such as SimpleGeo , Netflix , SmugMug , SmugMug’s CTO , Twilio , Bizo and others. Reading through the experience of others, I tried to summarize the patterns, principles and best practices that emerged from these posts, as I believe we can learn a lot from them on how to design our business applications to truly leverage on the benefits that the cloud offers in high availability and scalability. The main principles, patterns and best practices are: Design for failure Stateless and autonomous services Redundant hot copies spread across zones Spread across several public cloud vendors and/or

Introduction: Scalability Perspectives is a series of posts that highlights the ideas that will shape the next decade of IT architecture. Each post is dedicated to a thought leader of the information age and his vision of the future. Be warned though – the journey into the minds and perspectives of these people requires an open mind. Werner Vogels Dr. Werner Vogels is Vice President & Chief Technology Officer at Amazon.com where he is responsible for driving the company’s technology vision, which is to continuously enhance the innovation on behalf of Amazon’s customers at a global scale. Prior to joining Amazon, he worked as a researcher at Cornell University where he was a principal investigator in several research projects that target the scalability and robustness of mission-critical enterprise computing systems. He is regarded as one of the world's top experts on ultra-scalable systems and he uses his weblog to educate the community about issues such as eventual consistency. Information
