Gartner, Inc. has positioned Appistry, a pioneer in private cloud computing for the enterprise, in the visionaries quadrant of its “Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Application Servers” report.
Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Application Servers 2009 is out and Appistry received a great report! If you’ve ever gone through the Magic Quadrant evaluation procedure , you know from experience that the process is thorough and involves several analyst and customer conversations, which is why companies across the world rely on Gartner’s guidance for selecting vendors. We feel privileged to be recognized in this report and more importantly I believe it serves as validation of our industry-leading cloud computing technology.
In case you don’t know all the background, the 2009 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Application Servers depicts the top strengths of 27 other technology providers on the degree to which they anticipate and influence prevailing market trends; their attained industry and market presence and reputation; their record of business and technical execution; and the degree to which they have delivered the essential core functionality expected from a competitive product.
Even though this report primarily focuses on the Application Server market, the analysts acknowledge the trend toward cloud computing and cloud application platforms in the report. (application platform as a service, or APaaS, and SaaS-enabled application platforms, or SEAPs, in Gartner-speak)
Gartner’s recognition of Appistry CloudIQ Platform reaffirms the ability of our technology to support large, critical application deployments across a wide range of IT environments.
The fact that Appistry is recognized in this magic quadrant as well as recognized in the recent release of Garnter’s “Who’s Who in Application Platforms for Cloud Computing: The Enterprise Generalists” is also indication of the growing maturity of cloud application platform market as a key tool for enterprises seeking to transform the way they deliver applications.
