Virtual global launches free Crash Course for developers who use PaaS tools



Reston, VA-virtual global today announced that it will hold an online workshop July 19 at 12: 00 a.m. Eastern Time, for developers who want to jumpstart their as-a-service strategies. Virtual global makes its SaaS Maker ™ platform-as-a-service freely available to participating developers. SaaS Maker contains online tools for rapid prototyping, build and integrate social programs.

The workshop is led by Cary Landis, CEO of virtual world; and Dan Blacharski, editor-in-Chief of Techie.com. The workshop is open to executives and developers of all types, including entrepreneurs, small businesses and large system integrators.


To register for the event, go to http://saasmaker.eventbrite.com. The workshop will introduce the concept of platform-as-a-service, the upcoming "dot cloud boom" and details that help students jumpstart cloud strategies. Participants will learn about SaaS development, deployment, application migration and modernization. Attendees will also see how a true multi-tenant SaaS applications can be built in 30 minutes and are available on request to global users. The presenters will also discuss hot topics such as how to avoid vendor lock-in, providing cloud services, and deploy applications across the data center.


"The world of software development is changing for small businesses thanks to PaaS," Landis said. "These tools have taken the mystery out of application development, and placing it squarely in the hands of business owners and entrepreneurs. If developing as-a-service apps for internal use, or as a part of an entrepreneurial venture, SaaS Maker offers an end-to-end, "concept to revenue" model that begins at conception and stays with you all the way to revenue generation. "


With SaaS-burning, can developers build, distribute and sell social business applications with zero initial investment, which represents a sharp contrast to just a few years ago when the actual lead time and financing of the project would have been required even for a simple development project. "Cloud-driven business models, launching a new wave of innovation," noted Blacharski. "This is what we call" dot cloud boom, "which has already made significant inroads in enable more startups, lowering barriers to entry and put meaningful development in the hands of more people on the front lines of business and innovation support services."


At the seminar teaches participants about the details of how to use SaaS Maker create apps, like the new "dot cloud"-trend and new business models and opportunities that it provides.
