  • Virtual Panel: SOA and Cloud Computing

    SOA and Cloud computing experts discuss relationships between SOA and Cloud computing, principles and technologies they can/should share, the applications that can best leverage combining SOA and Cloud computing and the things that are the most important for Cloud computing success.

  • Patterns for Continuous Delivery

    There is no one-size-fits-all solution to implementing Continuous Delivery. The number and composition of the teams will greatly affect what options are available and what trade-offs need to be made. Staff editor Jonathan Allen reflects on some of the patterns he has observed over the last 15 years.

  • Interview and Book Review: Continuous Delivery

    Continuous delivery means that a software product is production-ready from day one of the project, even if all features not implemented, and the product can be released to users on demand. InfoQ spoke with Jez Humble and David Farley, authors of "Continuous Delivery" book on the continuous delivery concept and how it can be used to deliver the software product more efficiently.

  • SpringSource CTO Adrian Colyer Discusses the Impact of the Cloud on Enterprise IT

    This article is a transcript of an interview with SpringSource CTO Adrian Colyer, recorded at the inaugural What's Next Conference in Paris in May. Colyer discusses the impact of mobile devices, HTML 5 and cloud-computing on enterprise IT generally, and SpringSource's Cloud Foundary product.

  • The Problem with Cloud-Computing Standardization

    In this IEEE article, author Sixto Ortiz Jr. discusses the issues and challenges we are facing in cloud computing standardization. He also compares the cloud-computing standards proposed by organizations like Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF), IEEE, Open Grid Forum, OASIS, and Storage Networking Industry Association.

  • Interview with Rob Linton, author of “Amazon Web Services: Migrating your .NET Enterprise Application”

    A new "Amazon Web Services : Migrating your .NET Enterprise Application" book by Rob Linton provides a deep insight into Amazon Web Services (AWS) covering a wide spectrum of topics from describing AWS components and their role in applications architecture to step-by-step instructions on setting and configuring each AWS component . InfoQ spoke with by Rob Linton about his book.

  • Understanding Cloud Computing Vulnerabilities

    In this IEEE article, authors Bernd Grobauer, Tobias Walloschek and Elmar Stöcker discuss the cloud computing security and cloud-specific vulnerabilities using the vulnerability definition from the Open Group's risk taxonomy.

  • New Book: Building Applications in the Cloud

    Christopher Moyer has written a new book, “Building Applications in the Cloud: Concepts, Patterns, and Projects”. This book revolves around fundamental differences between the on-premise and cloud infrastructures, and architecture and design patterns that can be used to build and host scalable, reliable applications in the cloud.

  • Cloud Computing Realigns Role of Service Oriented Architecture

    From its inception Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) has been a source of dissension among enterprise, solution and application architects. Now cloud computing is changing the conversation.

  • An Open, Interoperable Cloud

    This article describes how interoperable clouds can be created, today, through the integration of open standards such as the Open Cloud Compute Interface, the Open Virtualisation Format and CDMI. They provide the means to package virtual infrastructure deployments, an API for the runtime management of storage infrastructure and an API for the runtime management of infrastructure as service.

  • Interview and Book Excerpt: CMMI for Services

    CMMI for Services(CMMI-SVC)is a process improvement framework developed by the SEI for service providers. InfoQ spoke to Eileen Forrester, co-author of CMMI for Services: Guidelines for Superior Service and manager of CMMI-SVC. In this interview we cover adoption practices for CMMI-SVC and its relationship with CMMI-DEV, ITIL and Agile accompanied by relevant excerpts from the book.

  • Architecting a Cloud-Scale Identity Fabric

    In this IEEE article, author Eric Olden discusses an identity fabric that links multiple applications to a single identity to manage the volume of user identities that network administrators must secure and to enable a full-scale cloud adoption.
