JBoss Operations & Management in the Cloud
Charles Crouch — Manager, Software Engineering, Red Hat
Alan Santos — Product Manager, Red Hat
The march toward cloud-enabled applications, services, and middleware is relentless. Did you know that your currently managed applications and services could be cloud-enabled with no new development? Whether you are planning entirely new deployments in the cloud, virtualizing legacy applications, or opportunistically expanding portions of your IT off-premise, JBoss Operations Network will virtualize and automate your existing resources to simplify and accelerate that march.
In this session, Charles Crouch and Alan Santos will share best practices, and will discuss and demo the upcoming operational features common to all managed JBoss products, including:
- On- and off-premise configuration and performance management
- Off-premise elasticity with responsive, policy-driven provisioning and configuration
- Application-oriented virtualization with JBoss Enterprise Middleware
Topics: Cloud, JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform, JBoss Operations Network, Red Hat Cloud
