Thoughts on Presenting at SIIA OnDemand

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

On October 29 I will be presenting at SIIA OnDemand 2009, the industry’s top conference for SaaS and Cloud Computing.

SIIA OnDemand is dedicated to understanding the business drivers around SaaS and cloud computing. SIIA OnDemand  2009 is especially interesting, because it will be focused on identifying new ways for SaaS companies to drive revenue. Panelist and presenters such as myself will be sharing actual real-world successes that you can learn from and apply to your own business.

Nolio’s presentation will be one of just a few early-stage, innovative companies that provide Software as a Service and Cloud solutions. Being a selected Previews Presenting Company at SIIA OnDemand will enable me to present our application automation solution to an audience of leading vendors, executives, and industry influencers. I am excited to be there and see it as a great opportunity to highlight the ways in which Nolio’s application automation solution streamlines application service tasks in the cloud.

I’m also looking forward to listening to the speakers, which include industry leaders such as ars Dalgaard, Founder & CEO of SuccessFactors, the fastest growing public software company in the world; Michael Lock of Google; Zach Nelson of NetSuite; Elliot Curtis of Microsoft; and many other speakers and panelists.

I’m very excited to be a part of SIIA OnDemand 2009. The quality of the speakers is exceptional and the conference presents tremendous networking opportunities. I’ll write more about my SIIA OnDemand 2009 experience when I’m back, so please stay tuned for my next post.

Application Automation

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

A huge pain point of trying to manipulate traditional infrastructure automation tools to work on the application layer and produce application automation, is that companies find themselves writing pieces of code, scripts, or huge numbers of nasty workflows.

These scripts then need to be continually maintained and tweaked for each lab or environment. This results in very high maintenance costs and very low efficiency. Companies simply can’t afford operating this way when it comes to data center applications uptime.

This is where the Nolio Application Automation solution becomes useful.

Nolio’s solution has a unique ability to design once, then execute in multiple environments, without the need to update and customize the automation for every new or slightly different lab, environment or datacenter.

This is achieved thanks to Nolio’s patent-pending technology [link to patent post], which focuses on multi-layer, complex application components, architectures, topologies and parameters.

As a result, Nolio’s customers achieve incredibly fast implementation time. Using Nolio’s application automation tools, dozens of workflows can be automated in a few days to a few weeks, and become fully operational in production environments and in Development, QA and staging environments.
