Introduction To Platform as a Service
Java based Platform as a Service (PaaS) can transform your development, governance, and service level management activities. PaaS can serve as a solid foundation for running IT as a business, increasing agility, optimizing budgets, and reducing time to market. IT professionals require a clear adoption roadmap and evaluation framework, which maximizes Cloud characteristics, adds architecture components, enhances infrastructure capabilities, and improves IT practices.
