How to Get Started

Hi there .. Im new to Cloud computing but I have developed much apps in C#. I want to develop a SaaS application in Java, plz tell me what I need to learn in java except its basics which I have learnt. Should I call SaaS a web application? do i have to learn JavaScript to develop SaaS ?. Is that essential to use a PaaS or IaaS provided by google, amazon and Microsoft? I just learned that there is a library or Framework named "CloudSim" Which can be used to create your own cloud on a server by using cloud architecture and by a VM. I dont know how to use them, and is this is good to have your own cloud than using others infrastructure ?

Hello, thanks for providing a detailed question which many members don't bother to do. However, your question is more towards the basics and I would recommend you start by reading about cloud computing and virtualization. Just start with some free videos on youtube and read some blogs. There are plenty of them out there. In your case you would most likely go with an PaaS or IaaS by the mentioned vendors unless your company has a data center of its own - which means a private cloud. In theory, a SaaS application isn't something magical compared to a general app that you would build. Just that it is hosted on a cloud (yes on a VM mostly) and is being marketed to multiple customers. Whether to have your own cloud or use MS, Amazon, Rackspace - it depends on how much money you want to spend vs how much money you can make.
