Barriers to entry are collapsing as digital startups come out of nowhere to disrupt entire industries. In this session we will discuss the capabilities you need to deliver business innovation through software to market faster than your competitors. Speaker: Faiz Parkar, Director EMEA GTM, Pivotal

The capability to operate cloud-native applications can create enormous business growth and value. But enterprise architects should be aware that cloud-native applications are vulnerable to vendor lock-in. We investigated cloud-native application design principles, public cloud service providers, and industrial cloud standards. All results indicate that most cloud service categories seem to foster vendor lock-in situations which might be especially problematic for enterprise architectures. This might sound disillusioning at first. However, we present a reference model for cloud-native applications that relies only on a small subset of well standardized IaaS services. The reference model can be used for codifying cloud technologies. It can guide technology identification, classification, adoption, research and development processes for cloud-native application and for vendor lock-in aware enterprise architecture engineering methodologies.

SpringOne Platform 2017 Todd Migliore, Comcast During this session I will be giving an overview of how Comcast developed the xfinity service platform and successfully migrated over 70 legacy SOA services to our next gen cloud native microservice platform. This project has been three years in the making and I have been leading it all along. We are finally at the finish line and I would like to share all that we have learned on our journey with the rest of the community. This session will be particularly useful to other enterprises contemplating a similar transformation. I will be covering the full gamut of our transformation. Everything from cloud native principals, continuous delivery, what is a microservice, service migration strategies, consumer migrations strategies, devops transformation, multi-site active/active architecture, distributed data architecture, resiliency patterns, and auto failover. Most importantly i will share some of the benefits our dev teams, business, and customers are experiencing as a result of this transformation.

This document discusses strategies for decomposing monolithic applications into microservices and ensuring resilience of the resulting microservices architecture. It covers decomposing monoliths using API-first and single responsibility principles. Managing the complex microservices architecture requires approaches for cross-cutting concerns like fault tolerance, traffic management, policy enforcement, distributed tracing, and infrastructure concerns like circuit breaking. A service mesh like Istio deployed as sidecars can provide a communications control plane for traffic management, policy enforcement, and distributed tracing between microservices.

Companies need to build better software faster to compete. But existing monolithic applications, legacy platforms, and lengthy operational deployment cycles are holding innovation back. Microservices are becoming the cloud architecture of choice because they offer the ability to loosely couple applications into discrete services that can be surgically changed without requiring disruptive overhauls. This approach enables the responsiveness and rapid change needed by the business. Enterprise PaaS is a critical foundation to simplify the operations, governance, and health management of these new architectures. Together with a DevOps culture, microservices and PaaS are the engine that drives innovation at speed.

Pivotal Cloud Foundry is a platform as a service that allows developers to quickly build, deploy, and scale applications. It provides users agility by enabling self-service access to application services and deployment resources. It also provides operators agility by automating infrastructure maintenance through containerization and DevOps practices like continuous integration/delivery.

This document discusses developer ready infrastructure and the evolution of cloud platforms. It argues that platforms need to support developers through automation and by handling operational concerns so developers can focus on building applications. It outlines different platform layers from infrastructure as a service (IaaS) to fully managed application platforms and serverless functions. Pivotal's approach leverages Kubernetes, BOSH, and Cloud Foundry to provide a fully automated and production-ready container platform that can run on any cloud and handle all operational tasks.

Pivotal Cloud Foundry 2.0 is a presentation about new features in Pivotal's platform as a service (PaaS) offering.
