About this Presentation
There's a ton of options for deploying to the cloud right now. Heroku and Engineyard are among the well known Platform as a Service (PaaS) providers. What if you don't want to use these PaaS services? What if you don't know which one is better? Are they cost effective? What about private deployments into internal infrastructure? This session answers these questions with a discussion of PaaS services and setting up your own PaaS using CloudFoundry.
