Codename:Bluemix My new Love.

It couldn't be this simple to deploy my application to the cloud in just some few seconds. Its not only exciting but tremendous.
Codename:Bluemix is an implementation of IBM’s Open Cloud Architecture, based on Cloud Foundry(cloud computing Platform as a service software) to enable developers to rapidly build, deploy, and manage their cloud applications, while enjoying the availability of several services, runtime and frameworks.
 IBM will provide services and runtimes into the ecosystem based on our extensive software portfolio.
The product is at beta stage and currently available for developers to test it free of charge asin 'free as beer'.
Being an enthusiast of the new product i have been trying to explore some of it main goals and it happens to be so brief and understandable. They say that bluemix will be able to:

  1. Reduce time for application/infrastructure provisioning.
  2. Allow for flexible capacity.
  3. Help to address any lack of internal tech resources.
  4. Reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
  5. Accelerate exploration of new workloads – social, mobile, big data.
This is the look and feel of the Dashboard.

For all developers out their interested in signing up for the beta, use this link https://ace.ng.bluemix.net/
I will take you step by step through the process of uploading your PHP application to bluemix.
Some of the other Capabilities bluemix has include Java, mobile backend development, application monitoring, as well as capabilities from ecosystem partners and open source — all through an as-a-service model in the cloud.
