CumuLogic Private Platform-as-a-Service
Architected for scalability, CumuLogic Platform-as-Service (PaaS) solution is built for applications
that require security, application isolation and
fault-tolerance. As a result, a PaaS is private to an
organization and no single architecture
component is shared ensuring platform isolation
even in public clouds.
Infrastructure Component Choice
CumuLogic PaaS allows mix-and-match of
application infrastructure components, so
whether you choose to use traditional
middleware servers or modern frameworks and
NoSQL databases, CumuLogic has them already
integrated, optimized and tested in the platform.
Developer API
Enhancing developer productivity is one of the
goals of the platform. Our easy-to-use RESTful
API enables developers to deploy applications
with a single API call making application lifecycle
management a breeze.
Extensible Framework
The platform is extensible to integrate with
additional infrastructure services as needed. CumuLogic PaaS is Infrastructure-
as-a-Service agnostic and supports multiple target clouds so you can deploy
different workloads on private or public clouds based on security, compliance
or service level agreement (SLA) needs.
You can build your private PaaS with middleware components from Red Hat,
IBM, Apache, MySQL, and MongoDB running on Citrix-Cloud.com CloudStack,
Eucalyptus, and VMware clouds.
What is CumuLogic product?
CumuLogic is the only private Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) available today for both
public and private clouds. It provides end-to-end application infrastructure services,
including monitoring, management, and autoscaling so you can deploy your applications
in public or private clouds, or both.
What are most common use cases for CumuLogic PaaS?
Enterprises - Enterprises with custom Java applications can use CumuLogic PaaS to
consolidate siloed applications running on different servers and infrastructure stacks to
a single standardized platform. At the same time, application developers get access to
a development, Test/QA and deployment infrastructure on a self-service basis, and are
able to focus on building applications rapidly and cost effectively.
Cloud Providers - Cloud Providers can leverage CumuLogic PaaS technology to
offer customized application Infrastructure-as-a-Service to their ISV and enterprise
customers.
ISVs - ISVs seeking to deliver applications via a cloud can leverage CumuLogic PaaS
for private or public clouds to provision and manage their applications end-to-end.
What are the key business benefits of CumuLogic solution?
CumuLogic PaaS major benefits include:
- • Simplified on-boarding of Java applications in public and private clouds
- • Consolidation of application infrastructure -> Next generation, agile IT
- • Standardization of software/application infrastructure -> Lower cost of IT/app operation
- • Use of existing middleware components -> IT investment protection
- • On-demand/self-service application infrastructure -> IT control with developer flexibility
- • Increased speed of development -> Faster time-to-market
What is the key functionality in CumuLogic PaaS ?
We continue to enhance the functionality of the platform through rolling beta releases.
The current release provides:
- • IaaS abstraction, multi-cloud support – clouds from multiple vendors are supported at the same time
- • Mix-and-match infrastructure software – enables deployment of modern applications
- • Monitoring, autoscaling, resiliency – automates the provisioning of necessary resources to applications as needed
- • Application infrastructure lifecycle management – eliminates variations from the development environment to production environments
- • Developer and administration API – enables developers to push applications to the cloud and expect all the platform service to be available to run those applications. Developers can manage the application lifecyle (i.e. deploy, un-deploy, version control, etc.)
- • Cloud Services Catalog – allows organizations to acquire new infrastructure software and updates delivered and registered to their repositories in private clouds eliminating the need to build their own service images which can be a time consuming task
What platforms and technologies does CumuLogic PaaS support/manage?
