Apprenda Partners with Piston to Bring OpenStack Prowess to Private Platform as a Service
TROY, N.Y., Dec. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Apprenda, the leader in enterprise Platform as a Service (PaaS), announced today that it has partnered with Piston Cloud Computing, Inc., the web-scale infrastructure orchestration and automation company. Together, Apprenda and Piston deliver a tightly integrated solution that enables agile software development teams to build Java and .NET cloud applications and microservices faster in a true hybrid cloud environment.
Piston CloudOS™ and Piston OpenStack™ software deliver compute, storage, networking and management through self-service interfaces and APIs, while Apprenda offers an enterprise-grade PaaS that greatly speeds up app and microservices development. In this new partnership, Piston provides the infrastructure, while Apprenda provides a software layer that transforms the infrastructure into a policy-driven, hybrid cloud application platform.
"Apprenda's integration with Piston allows developers to have policy based access to OpenStack™ APIs to quickly manage infrastructure," Apprenda CEO Sinclair Schuller said.
Additionally, Piston's turn-key web-scale infrastructure solution enables Apprenda's customers to deploy a hands-free, scalable, secure and production-ready private cloud environment in a single day. Once you have set up an Apprenda and Piston environment, developers can quickly and easily build new—or modernize existing—on-premise applications for SaaS-based consumption. This flexibility allows for rapid updates to web software and scalable configurations that simplify the pre-cloud setup process.
"From day one, Piston set out to build a product that would eliminate the complexity associated with managing and deploying a traditional on-premise environment," Piston CEO Jim Morrisroe said. "And together with Apprenda, we provide customers additional freedom from datacenter complexity by delivering a scalable turn-key IaaS and PaaS solution, out of the box."
