Developers Can Create, Deploy and Publish Apps in the Cloud for Free

Vienna, Va., Oct. 18, 2012 — NJVC®, an information technology (IT) solutions provider headquartered in Northern Virginia, introduces Cloudcuity™ AppDeployer, a new and innovative platform a s a service that allows developers to quickly create and publish software-as-a-service applications for sale in the cloud. Cloudcuity AppDeployer is part of the NJVC Cloudcuity portfolio of cloud offerings.
“Cloudcuity AppDeployer is a game changer for the software development industry,” said Kevin L. Jackson, vice president and general manager, NJVC Cloudcuity. “Cloudcuity AppDeployer offers an alternative to writing business applications from scratch the old slow and costly way. With Cloudcuity AppDeployer, developers and independent software vendors can start building applications for free, and potentially take enterprise-class software systems to market in weeks instead of years.”
A key component of AppDeployer empowers developers with point-and-click tools to rapidly prototype and deploy applications without programming. Its software development kit makes it possible to write add-on modules that integrate with open-source, third-party and legacy systems. AppDeployer makes it easy to publish apps for sale; developers merely need to set a price, click a button and their app is instantly available worldwide. AppDeployer also is available as a licensed product for deployment in customers’ own clouds.
The engine behind AppDeployer has been employed by the U.S. government and commercial and academic organizations to build apps for a wide variety of functions, including catalog management, nonprofit management, team management and collaboration and long-term care logistics.
Although AppDeployer is designed for ease of use, it can support the development of complex applications. For instance, NJVC is developing a disaster management system on AppDeployer that integrates Google geospatial services. This enterprise system can be deployed on-demand in crisis-response scenarios by first responders around the globe. The system showcases how Cloudcuity AppDeployer provides on-demand provisioning and application multi-tenancy within large and complex organizations.
Important to software developers in the federal space, AppDeployer -designed apps inherently align with the National Institute of Standards and Technology Reference Architecture for Cloud Computing, encompassing all three major cloud service models: SaaS, PaaS and infrastructure as a service. Cary Landis, NJVC Cloudcuity platform practice lead, was instrumental in the development of the NIST reference architecture, and led a NIST subgroup to clarify the PaaS and other cloud service models.
Cloudcuity is the NJVC framework for delivering cloud service offerings. This framework helps users transition their technology applications to a cloud environment, while cutting spending, improving process and billing inefficiencies and complying with a myriad of regulatory and security requirements.
AppDeployer leverages a platform engine licensed from Virtual Global.
