(Presented by Red Hat) Learn how you can quickly develop, host, and scale applications in the AWS cloud with Red Hat’s OpenShift. In this session, we walk you through the simple process of deploying and managing your own Linux-based application in the cloud using live demonstrations. We also discuss key use-cases and benefits to automated configuration, deployment, and administration of application stacks.

2. Agenda
•
•
•
•
Start a demo
Cover some cool architecture
Go back to demo
We are going to see app creation, deployment,
and autoscaling LIVE!

4. Our application
• We work for a vendor that sells souvenirs at
national parks in the United States and Canada
• We are making a check in service to help drive
traffic to our stands
• Doing a big national promotion which has the
potential to create A LOT of traffic
• Due next week

5. Let’s go look at the application
• http://parkswinning.apps.reinvent.onopenshift.com
• Written with:
–
–
–
–
Java EE (aka the new Hotness)
Postgresql and PostGIS
Running on OpenShift
Load test with BlazeMeter

6. Using OpenShift Enterprise on Amazon
Web Services
• We retain control over how the “servers” are
configured
• We control access to the data
• We are NOT buying hardware
• We are NOT racking and stacking
• We get excellent efficiency from our AWS
purchase

8. What is PaaS (quickly)

9. OpenShift Products

11. Let’s go behind the scenes
• Take a tour of
the PaaS from a
DevOps
perspective

12. Now a tour from a developers
perspective
•
•
•
•
•
Create app
Create app with Eclipse
Create instant app
Make a code change
Look at our logs

13. Time to Check the Cake in the Oven
• Let’s see how
scaling is doing

14. Conclusions
• OpenShift helps Ops and Devs to “just get
along” through a standard interface
• That interface provides:
– Developer Agility
– Operational Standardization
– Efficiency in IT
• With the efficiency comes:
– Responsive apps, that auto-scale
– Cost effectiveness
