What is Cloud Native?

Cloud native applications are composed of reusable components known as microservices and are designed to integrate into any cloud environment. This flexible and scalable approach is ideal for enterprises who are tasks with improving existing applications, building new applications, and enhancing user experience.

Check out this quick overview video with Andrea Crawford as she goes through a cloud infrastructure architecture and explains how cloud-native apps can improve it and help drive innovation and speed within your enterprise.

I really appreciate her tone and sentiments- condescending, prideful, self-righteous this was an excellent presentation.

[teohaik]

ok but you forgot to actually explain what are cloud native apps

[fuqingwang]

Am I the only one who got even more confused after watching this video?

[sivavogeti]

Hi Andrea. Thank you for your explanation on Cloud Native applications. However, I have a question. The application code that you have spoken about are the cloud native apps. But it is not clear as to what Cloud Native means? Is it that the monoliths are being modernized into Microservices? Looking forward to hearing from you.

Cloud native apps is a form or evolution that can be to a PaaS and IaaS app? or how is the relation with the cloud models ( paas, saas, iaas) ?

[tracyg]

Well I'm off to research the definitions of these independent concepts.

So frustrated with all vendors who sell cloud native and claim it gives you innovation, agility, commoditization. That’s all fluff. Nobody is adopting this stuff until you are honest about what it is. I can’t sell this to my users and the business with these fluff terms.

Nice to see IBM is making some educational stuff. Thanx Andrea

Excellent video. Explained in a simple way.

not all "non native cloud" apps are monolithic apps as you suggest. If you develop thinking only cloud native you are also restricted to that kind "proprietary" of enviroment of a cloud services provider

[aravind]

you said why and when cloud native apps are required, but not a single word what is cloud native app or an example lol

[mziqbal]

It's a beautiful and easy to understand insight on understanding cloud native Apps. Thank you ✨🌠

I'm surpised at how well she seems to be writing backwards....

[jeremytheoneofdestiny]

1:09 "lemme just draw a potato sack here"

[shridhar_rao]

That moment when you realize she's writing in reverse.

[onomatopoeial]

her face when she is drawing monolithic lol

[javadoctor]

Jeez.. She just shoved more buzz words into the concepts (as if there aren't already enough) without even beginning to talk about WHAT cloud native is!!

[kiwihello]

not all software before cloud was monolithic. its a good story illustrator that is not correct. even with cloud organization still use java which yes has a build paradigm that pushes monolithic products. not everyone was adopting that insanity. cloud native doesn't target monolith only

[nidalbakir]

Sure, whatever all these buzzwords mean. What is Cloud Native?

[akshaypethani]

where the hell she explain cloud-native here?
