1
00:00:05,500 --> 00:00:08,990
Cloud is a growth engine for business, and 
no one plays

2
00:00:08,990 --> 00:00:10,900
a greater part in that growth than developers.

3
00:00:10,910 --> 00:00:14,000
Every great innovation runs through a developer's 
hands

4
00:00:14,010 --> 00:00:17,000
and they're leading traditional and cloud-based 
enterprises

5
00:00:17,010 --> 00:00:19,800
into a new era of client engagement.

6
00:00:19,810 --> 00:00:27,200
For those of you new to the cloud, you'll 
always hear about three layers:

7
00:00:27,210 --> 00:00:30,800
IaaS, SaaS and PaaS.

8
00:00:30,810 --> 00:00:35,050
Infrastructure as a service, software as 
a service, and platform as a service.

9
00:00:35,050 --> 00:00:39,100
The "as a service" model is changing how 
organizations work.

10
00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:42,500
The infrastructure layer makes up the core 
cloud services:

11
00:00:42,510 --> 00:00:45,500
the hardware, operations and infrastructure.

12
00:00:45,510 --> 00:00:48,500
The services layer provides the viable components 
that can

13
00:00:48,510 --> 00:00:51,800
operate independently or as building blocks 
for composing applications.

14
00:00:51,810 --> 00:00:54,300
And the platform layer binds these layers 
together

15
00:00:54,310 --> 00:00:58,200
and lets developers deploy the resulting 
applications into the cloud.

16
00:00:58,210 --> 00:01:07,700
It's costly and time consuming to develop 
code from scratch.

17
00:01:07,710 --> 00:01:10,700
Nothing's worse than writing code that's 
already been written.

18
00:01:10,710 --> 00:01:14,010
Platform as a service lets developers build 
and deploy

19
00:01:14,010 --> 00:01:17,800
applications rapidly. It's instant access 
to enterprise

20
00:01:17,810 --> 00:01:21,990
and open-source software, open standards 
and code samples,

21
00:01:21,990 --> 00:01:24,600
lets developers innovate efficiently, without 
having to manage

22
00:01:24,610 --> 00:01:26,100
infrastructure resources.

23
00:01:26,110 --> 00:01:31,100
This speeds up developments from months to 
weeks, and from weeks to days.

24
00:01:31,110 --> 00:01:34,400
When developers can quickly design and test 
software,

25
00:01:34,410 --> 00:01:36,300
and scale to meet changing business demand,

26
00:01:36,310 --> 00:01:39,000
their business can stay ahead of the competition.

27
00:01:39,010 --> 00:01:49,800


28
00:01:49,810 --> 00:01:52,600
With the growing shift towards cloud-based 
services,

29
00:01:52,610 --> 00:01:54,600
customer expectations are heightening.

30
00:01:54,610 --> 00:01:58,100
This makes enterprises' speed and agility 
critical.

31
00:01:58,110 --> 00:02:01,600
Businesses that can't deliver fast enought 
can lose out.

32
00:02:01,610 --> 00:02:08,000
And yet, of the 18 million developers in 
the world, fewer than 25%

33
00:02:08,010 --> 00:02:12,400
are developing forthe cloud, and even fewer 
are developing for the public cloud.

34
00:02:12,410 --> 00:02:16,980
As we work with our extensive client roster 
of cloud-based innovators,

35
00:02:16,980 --> 00:02:20,000
we've determined a point of view based on 
three critical steps

36
00:02:20,010 --> 00:02:24,400
that they're taking to attract the best developers 
and ensure their success.

37
00:02:24,410 --> 00:02:29,980
Number one: they're putting an integrated 
application development platform,

38
00:02:29,980 --> 00:02:32,980
a PaaS, at the center of their business.

39
00:02:32,980 --> 00:02:36,100
A cloud-based platform has to provide a flexible 
environment to support

40
00:02:36,110 --> 00:02:40,100
an enterprise's changing needs, and it has 
to offer pre-configured services

41
00:02:40,110 --> 00:02:43,100
so the developers can build custom applications 
quickly.

42
00:02:43,110 --> 00:02:47,400
It has to let developers choose the right 
components, configurations,

43
00:02:47,410 --> 00:02:51,400
and software without tying them down to one 
vendor or one practice,

44
00:02:51,410 --> 00:02:58,200
and, of course, it has to deliver the service 
in a secure, scalable, stable environment.

45
00:02:58,210 --> 00:03:01,300
Number two: they're defining a strategy for 
integrating

46
00:03:01,310 --> 00:03:03,200
new apps with existing environments.

47
00:03:03,210 --> 00:03:07,900
New cloud application have more and more 
mobile, social and analytical

48
00:03:07,910 --> 00:03:11,600
capabilities. The modern enterprise needs 
an effective strategy

49
00:03:11,610 --> 00:03:15,000
to connect these new applications with existing 
interfaces and

50
00:03:15,010 --> 00:03:18,200
infrastructures that they have spent decades 
developing.

51
00:03:18,210 --> 00:03:20,700
To ease this integration, part of our strategy 
is to

52
00:03:20,710 --> 00:03:23,300
deliver a middleware stack as a service to 
our clients.

53
00:03:23,310 --> 00:03:27,300
Number three: they're implementing a continuous

54
00:03:27,310 --> 00:03:28,600
delivery experience.

55
00:03:28,610 --> 00:03:31,100
Gone are the days of extended release cycles.

56
00:03:31,110 --> 00:03:35,800
In cloud  development, speed allows you to 
be in constant delivery mode.

57
00:03:35,810 --> 00:03:40,200
Today's developers want to deliver innovation 
quickly and continuously.

58
00:03:40,210 --> 00:03:44,800
Whether it's a local team of developers or 
a network of teams across the globe,

59
00:03:44,810 --> 00:03:50,800
the right cloud platform has to let the innovators 
collaborate and roll out enhancements.

60
00:03:50,810 --> 00:03:55,000
That's our point of view on how to select 
the right PaaS environtment.

61
00:03:55,010 --> 00:03:58,400
At IBM, we specifically designed our platform 
to perform

62
00:03:58,410 --> 00:04:00,500
all three of these fundamental elements.

63
00:04:00,510 --> 00:04:04,900
So developers can build software that was 
unthinkable and economically impossible

64
00:04:04,910 --> 00:04:05,700
even a few years ago.

65
00:04:05,710 --> 00:04:10,400
We focus on providing the right tools, training, 
software and services

66
00:04:10,410 --> 00:04:11,600
for the cloud developer.

67
00:04:11,610 --> 00:04:16,000
Because today, the most successful companies 
are gonna be the ones

68
00:04:16,010 --> 00:04:20,960
that understand the strategic role that developers 
will play in their success.

69
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:32,000
