Yesterday, the leading tech analyst, The 451 Group, published a report on Phurnace. They talk quite a bit about how Phurnace is starting to look like a “cloud foundry”. It is a great report that gives their insights after they were briefed on some of our upcoming product enhancements (Phurnace 4.0 and cloud targeted products).
One of the most interesting lines in the report is this: “It is not yet clear how clouds will be used in the enterprise, but it is likely they will underpin J2EE applications. If that does turn out to be true, the sheer scale and speed of elastic cloud deployments will preclude hand-coded provisioning. Something like Phurnace Deliver will be required.”
Please check out the full report here.
