Getting ready for the cloud

Nati Shalom January 9, 2009
2 minutes read

In the past few months, I have been speaking in various conferences about cloud computing.

In my presentations, I tried to focus primarily on how one can take practical steps to benefit from the cloud today. To illustrate my points, I used GigaSpaces as the scale-out application server and Amazon EC2 as the cloud infrastructure and thus demonstrated how one can deploy EXISTING java applications on the cloud while:

  • Not having to re-write your application
  • Preventing lock-in to specific cloud provider
  • Enabling seamless portability between your local environment to cloud environment
    • No code or configuration change is required between the two environments
    • Develop local – test on the cloud
    • Built for iterative development

In addition, I demonstrated the use of our new Cloud tools framework which enabled me to fully automate the entire application provisioning process on the cloud. This tool enabled me to:

  • Deploy load balancer
  • Cluster web containers
  • Cluster application processing units
  • MySQL database connected to EBS

And all that through a single click deployment.
In the demonstration, I also showed how you can benefit from the cloud:

  • Dynamically scale when the load breaches a certain threshold
  • New web containers are dynamically linked to the load-balancer (no configuration change is required as all is taken care of on the fly).
  • Self healing – if something breaks, scale-down to existing machine while getting a new machine ready.

The entire presentation can be viewed online

You can also view the online video presentation that i gave in the Cloud Summit in Tel Aviv where i ran a live demo of our new cloud infrastructure on EC2 demonstrating both dynamic scaling and also what happens when machine fails in front of a live audience!

If you want to try to run the demo yourself and you don’t have an Amazon user – just drop an email to cloud at gigaspaces dot com and will send you a free pass to the early access program.
Enjoy!
