SAN FRANCISCO (Business Wire EON) February 28, 2008 --
Rollbase, an innovator in Platform as a Service (PaaS), today announced
from the SaaS Summit 2008 conference in San Francisco that it has chosen
OpSource On-Demand™ to deliver its new
on-demand application development and delivery platform. The Rollbase
platform is designed specifically for users who aren’t
programming experts.
Business users, IT professionals and Web developers can use Rollbase to
design, develop and deploy custom Web-based applications using highly
intuitive and interactive tools within a standard Web browser. By
providing an easy to learn and flexible toolset in a rich AJAX-based
user experience, Rollbase makes rapid Web-based application development
possible for people who may not have the time, resources or expertise to
create on-demand applications using traditional software development
methods.
“We chose OpSource because we needed a proven
SaaS-focused delivery provider that could go beyond just managing our
hardware and operating systems to become a core part of our Web
operations team,” said Matt Robinson,
co-founder and CEO of Rollbase. “We looked at
using a combination of utility computing services and other hosting
providers but found that no combination of the two could match the level
of service and proactive support we needed. With the OpSource OnDemand
platform we have been able to create and deploy our production
infrastructure for our state of the art PaaS in just a few months.”
Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, said: “In the next
20 years, all applications will be Web applications, not just because
they are more affordable, easier to use or better platforms –
although they are all three – but because they
are how the next generation of users and programmers are used to
working. We are proud of our affiliation with Rollbase, which is leading
the charge in developing Web-based business applications.”
For an in-person demonstration showcasing the benefits of the Rollbase
platform, please visit Rollbase in booth #21 at the OpSource SaaS Summit
2008 conference at the Westin St. Francis, San Francisco.
