Abstract:
Project Hydrazine was announced at JavaOne'08, by Sun Microsystems Inc., to
accelerate the development of Rich Cloud Applications (RCA) that deliver
rich content and user experience across the four screens of a consumer life
(PC, mobile, setop-box, TV, car).
Outline:
Project Hydrazine provides a hosted developer platform with service-enablers, cloud service runtime, and Netbeans JavaFX tools to rapidly develop and deploy personalized, contextual and blended RCA applications. Project Hydrazine hosted runtime environment leverages Sun's unique open-source software infrastructure (OpenSolaris, Glassfish, mySQL, OpenSSO, OpenDS and OpenESB) to deliver an open, secure, scalable and reliable cloud runtime environment. In addition, Project Hydrazine will provide an extensive repository and catalog of services. These include foundation infrastructure services as well as ISV and community developed services.
This talk will discuss the state of the art of cloud computing, differentiate
Project Hydrazine approach versus Amazon's EC2 and Google's App Engine
cloud computing platforms. The talk will present Project Hydrazine architecture
and service-enablers, and demonstrate how to create and deploy new Hydrazine services.
