Title: Write Java Apps Faster Using SaaS Developer Environments

Abstract: The Java community is filled with terrific solutions for enabling development of apps. Every Java developer has their choice of tools and the openness of the platform makes it accessible to anyone and extensible by everyone.

But why then, is 99% of all development still done locally? While sales, marketing, customer service, support, finance, and infrastructure has steadily moved to the cloud over the past decade, Java development remains rooted on the desktop. Will it always be this way?

In this session, we will discuss the evolution of remote development of Java applications and the emergence of SaaS Developer Environments. Often times called a cloud IDE, a SaaS environment can eliminate configuration, increase collaboration, and alleviate management concerns around consistency, compliance, and velocity. In essence, SaaS developer environments can make agile, more agile.

Session Agenda
1) Why Cloud Development
2) Types of SaaS Developer Environments
3) Demo of Codenvy Cloud
** Remote workspace & project configuration
** CLI & Browser access
** Temporary, on-demand environments
** Shared development: editor, syntax analysis, collaborative coding
** Cloud build, dependency management, unit test (maven / ant / groovy)
** Cloud debug (runner, multi-process container, shell access)
** Project persistence (storage, image mgmt, privacy)
** Project creation (resource management, cloud bindings)
** Datasource management (cloud vs. local resources)
** Analytics (user dashboard, derived metrics, session tracking)
** Cloning (creating re-usable environments, embeddable, customizable)
** Plug-ins (extending browser and server-side cloud functionality)
** APIs (accounts, workspaces, projects, runners, builders, etc.)
** Offline and On-Premises Access (running proprietary clouds)
