State of the Infrastructure
summary
A concise history of infrastructure that traces specific breakthroughs and their effects: Java plus JITs enable J2EE and server-side portability, Loudcloud and BladeLogic create provisioning automation, VMware virtualizes x86 via a software workaround (early 40% performance hit) and spawns a new ops model, AWS combines automation and virtualization to become a global delivery platform (mid 2007 AWS bit traffic passes retail), and Cloud Foundry pushes open source PaaS while devops emerges as the fix for legacy on‑prem vs cloud tensions.
