Cloud, Docker and Microservices - these are not just words in the software industry, those words mark the biggest paradigm shift of how software is developed for the last century. Dynamic and automatic scalability, instant fail-over and the easiest deployment solution ever possible. Hazelcast and Microsoft have worked together to bring the power of In-Memory Computing and Caching to the Azure cloud. See Christoph Engelbert from Hazelcast and Vito Flavio Lorusso from Microsoft presenting how easy it is to use Hazelcast, the fastest and easiest way to run it on Azure and how to run high-end performing applications at global scale leveraging Azure global infrastructure.

1. The Delivery Hero
A Simpsons As A Service Storyboard

2. When I was young – books were still a thing…

3. …and those were delivered through book stores

4. Also in the early days of computers,
delivering software was easy

5. Often enough software was
shared at school or work

6. Who‘s too young
to remember that time?

7. But hardware and software
grew more complex

8. And publishers took on the problem -
some of them got big in the game

9. However, customers change

10. More and more people buy online

11. Watch movies on Simflix

12. Work remotely and use videocalls

13. Or do things (at work)…

14. …that better stay in the dark

15. Or don‘t you know this feeling,…

16. …when your better half just comes home? ;-)

17. And do not forget, smartphones became a thing, too

18. Some had a very secret plan to solve the change

19. But everyone tried to keep up with the change

20. Some even considered physical delivery by drones

21. But delivering hosted solutions is different

22. There‘s always a fire to fight

23. “Our server can‘t hold up to the load anymore!“

24. The amazing monolith just does not scale.

25. “We need a better, scalable architecture!“

26. People expect hosted software to be available
DOH!
NOOOO!
I can‘t work
that way!

27. Ever seen gamers going crazy during maintenance?

28. Ever seen gamers going crazy during maintenance?

29. Ever seen gamers going crazy during maintenance?

30. Ever seen gamers going crazy during maintenance?

31. Ever seen gamers going crazy during maintenance?

32. Crazy right?!?

33. But do you remember the
last time Google was offline?

34. But do you remember the
last time Google was offline?

35. So we need a new plan…

36. …and your dev team knows exactly what you mean!

37. Except, they don‘t.

38. So you try take on the story of little
independent software elements…

39. …that can updated and scaled
completely separated from others.

40. You seem like a rebel making such a proposal

41. And what seems a great idea…

42. …turns out to look stupid to others

43. In the end at least some people
get it, but not all of them.

44. Ever tried to combine monolith and microservice?
Director‘s comment:

45. Fortunately some cool devs get it

46. What we need is the holy grail precious, my precious

47. We want simple solutions!

48. Minimize functionality in every single unit

49. Simple software packaging

50. Horizontal scalability

51. Without additional complexity

52. And fast…

53. …and easy deployment

54. We want devops to party on every release

55. Ohhh… and you too!

56. Manual deployments don‘t work, do they?

57. And if you manage, the night‘s long

58. Operation hates you if you put more work on them

59. So someone finally shows you…

60. …the cloud!

61. That is what we
want to do today

62. Make you happy

63. Make employees happy

64. Make customers happy

65. Make your mom happy

66. Even your neighbors

67. And believe me, it‘s not dangerous at all

68. Just keep your balance

69. And put it together bit by bit

70. Alright, let‘s get started already!

71. PS: We know, the Simpsons
are great on predicting the future…

72. …so is that it?

73. Or more like that?

74. A big thank you to: Matt Groening

76. Almost forgot: Merry Christmas
