Everyone deserves nice things - IEEE International Workshop on the Future of PaaS 2014

Keynote given to commence IEEE International Workshop on the Future of PaaS 2014.

When innovating and building out PaaS solutions always remember: everyone deserves nice things. Or rather "life shouldn't suck". Neither for developers nor for ops people.

The talk gave an introduction to the areas associated with web software that should be covered by PaaS solutions and companies that use them. Why? Because everyone deserves nice things.
