PaaS Appropriateness Assessment Tool

Author(s): John Sloan, Laura Hansen-Kohls

Platform as a Service (PaaS) is still a nascent technology and measures must be taken to determine the right fit with the organization’s development strategy. This tool is designed to help categorize business and development team readiness for development in the cloud. Areas for consideration:

  • Upfront capital costs
  • Development process maturity
  • Previous cloud experience

The tool is an extension of the original “Cloud Candidate Assessment Tool” with additional guidance specifically concerning PaaS.
