GigaSpaces Announces Second Generation Cloud-Enablement Platform
"We're excited to announce this new up-and-coming GigaSpaces platform, which is truly unique in that it offers an exclusive silo-free architecture to customers building their PaaS or SaaS environments, enabling them to gain unprecedented efficiencies and fast time to market," says Adi Paz, executive vice-president of marketing and development GigaSpaces. "This new product offers a field-proven technology, minimizing the risks associated with the cloud, making former ‘mission impossibles' very possible indeed."According to Adi Paz , the second generation of GigaSpace's CEAP, combines the company's eXtreme Application Platform with the tools that enterprises and ISVs need to ease the development of platform-as-a-service and software-as-a-service apps, allowing companies to build components that can scale up and down to meet fluctuating customer demands with consistent speed and reliability. According the Marketwire, the second-generation product particularly targeted at private and hybrid cloud-based solutions includes:
- Silo-free architecture that is a converged end-to-end application and data environment enabling cross-stack elasticity, multi-tenancy, unified SLA-driven performance, central management and simplifying development and operational processes.
- Cross-stack fine-grained multi-tenancy from the web tier down to the customer and data object levels that is user, data and application policy-driven. This provides easy management and monitoring through a comprehensive management console enabling full control, security, and crystal clear visibility over all of the multi-tenancy aspects of the application.
- Built-in DevOps to uniformly manage and automate the lifecycle of the entire application middleware and its resources, dramatically reducing operational and development complexity.
- Out-of-the-box third-party middleware management (e.g. Tomcat, Cassandra, JMS) that automates and manages all application middleware services during deployment and in production.
- Openness, providing effortless portability, multi-language and multi-middleware support, along with easy integration with existing processes and systems for private, public, and hybrid clouds.
