Abstract

Today, the question is less about whether or not to use Platform as a Services (PaaS), but rather which providers to use. PaaS is a computing platform that abstracts the infrastructure, OS, and middleware to drive developer productivity. PaaS offerings are "polyglot" and "polyhost". Selection of Platform as a Service provider is an important process because an ideal vendor will be able to continue to partner with company as company grows. There are many components to be consider while selecting PaaS vendor like Scalability, Availability, Manageability, Performance, Security, Accessibility, Billing At a high-level a PaaS helps organizations, specifically by providing a fast and scalable way to host applications in the cloud.
