Talk: Make the Cloud Less Cloudy: A Perspective for Software Development Teams: It’s all about Productivity

Today I gave a talk at Better Software Conference East 2013 about how the cloud impacts your development team. The talk was called “Making the Cloud Less Cloudy: A Perspective for Software Development Teams” and was heavy with short demos on making your dev team more productive, then a slightly longer look into how you can evolve your application to fully go cloud-native with some interesting patterns. All the demos showed off the Windows Azure Cloud Platform, though, as I explained, most of the techniques are general and can be used with other platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The deck doesn’t mention this explicitly, but all of my demos (and my slide presentation) were done from the cloud! Yes, I was in the room, but my laptop was remotely connected to a Windows Azure Virtual Machine running in Microsoft’s East US Windows Azure data center. It worked flawlessly. 🙂

Here’s the PowerPoint Deck:
