4. Developer Issues Traditional developer experience Platform as a Service Environment You can scale manually, or automatically as demand grows How many machines will we need to run the service, and how will we add machines when we need to scale? Benefit Drivers: Geo scale Fast Time to market No re-training of developer staff Vendor trust Cost effectiveness High Performance How will we handle upgrades without taking down the service? Upgrades are transparent to the user because the software is abstracted from the hardware How will we keep our machines secure with the latest OS patches? Patching happens behind the scenes, with no impact to the applications How will we manage all our data? What will happen if hardware fails? Next-generation tools such as SDDS are supporting your data. Failure of hardware, or even an entire data center is invisible
