Customer Challenges
Don’t throw infrastructure at an app problem
• Cloud Applications Are Hard to Write
 High availability, elasticity, multi-tenancy and distributed execution are complicated to get right and
harder to standardize
 Developers need to focus on business logic and not application infrastructure
• Application Deployment Takes Too Long
 Every deployment is unique and requires hours of meetings across different IT silos
 Developers are building different versions of the same applications based on the location of the
application: on-premise vs. public cloud
• Application Delivery Is Costly and Inefficient
 Very little sharing of application templates eliminates economies of scale and fosters wheel
