Expanding the eXo Partner Program

eXo Cloud IDE First to Support Java, Direct PaaS Deployments for Developers

Wednesday, July 20th, 2011

Quick and Easy On-Ramp to PaaS of Choice: CloudBees DEV@cloud and RUN@cloud, Heroku, Red Hat OpenShift

SAN FRANCISCO — July 20, 2011 — eXo, the enterprise Java portal and cloud user experience platform (UXP) company, today announced that eXo Cloud IDE is the first web-based IDE to support Java, extending its support for HTML, JavaScript, Groovy, PHP and Ruby languages. eXo Cloud IDE also offers a quick and easy on-ramp for deploying applications directly to several major Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) including CloudBees, Heroku, and Red Hat OpenShift.

News Highlights

  • About eXo Cloud IDE: Launched in March, eXo Cloud IDE is a multi-tenant, hosted development environment that enables social coding – the collaborative development of applications, gadgets and mashups that can be deployed directly to a PaaS. eXo Cloud IDE is available online at www.cloud-ide.com.
  • Easy On-Ramp to PaaS Deployments: eXo Cloud IDE now includes a drop-down menu for easily deploying applications to Heroku and Red Hat OpenShift PaaS. By leveraging Git repositories, eXo Cloud IDE allows developers to manage, edit and redeploy changes from the PaaS menu. To deploy Java applications to CloudBees, developers build the apps using the CloudBees DEV@cloud service and deploy via the CloudBees RUN@cloud service.
  • Robust IDE Goes Beyond JavaScript: With eXo Cloud IDE, the company goes beyond basic JavaScript to enable rich, functional development of REST services and Ruby, PHP and Java applications.
    • Java/JSP support has been enhanced to include support for standard Java classes (Servlets or POJOs) and Java Server Pages (JSP). Developers can create standard Java projects in the cloud, and also test and deploy those projects directly to the cloud using Maven and Jenkins via CloudBees DEV@cloud capabilities. eXo Cloud IDE continues to let developers write REST APIs in Groovy using the JAX-RS specification and store structured data inside a Java Content Repository.
    • PHP support gives developers another option for writing applications. As with other languages supported by eXo Cloud IDE – including Ruby – every file has color syntaxing, outline and auto code completion.
  • Improved Git Support: eXo Cloud IDE now features a new, easy-to-use Git menu, which natively integrates protocol commands. This gives developers access to Git controls, as well as visibility into the version history of repositories, without ever having to leave the eXo Cloud IDE domain.

Supporting Quotes

  • Sacha Labourey, founder and CEO of CloudBees: “eXo CloudIDE developers can not only deploy their applications to CloudBees RUN@cloud Java PaaS in a snap, but they can also leverage CloudBees DEV@cloud and benefit from Git code repositories, Jenkins-based Continuous Integration and Maven repositories, all nicely integrated. This provides a complete development and runtime environment in the cloud.”
  • Benjamin Mestrallet, eXo founder and CEO: “The primary goal of eXo Cloud IDE is to provide a cloud service where teams of developers can collaborate and build applications in the language they prefer, while also giving them the freedom and flexibility to deploy their applications to the different cloud platforms available in the market. With this announcement, we now support three different PaaS offerings and their distinct deployment models.”

Paris et San Francisco, le 13 juillet 2011 - eXo, éditeur open source de portails d’entreprise Java et de plate-forme d’expérience utilisateur (UXP) dans le Cloud, annonce aujourd’hui le lancement d’un programme partenaire renforcé pour mieux répondre à la demande croissante et mondiale autour de son produit phare, eXo Platform 3.

« Notre fort engagement auprès de nos partenaires intégrateurs s’est avéré être un élément clé du succès rencontré par notre offre sur le marché », dit Yann Aubry, Vice-Président en charge des Ventes chez eXo. « Aujourd’hui, nous désirons proposer le même niveau de support à nos revendeurs et distributeurs. Nous assurons à tous nos partenaires une formation complète sur eXo Platform 3 afin d’accélérer leur montée en compétence et leur permettre de mieux tirer parti des opportunités qui se présentent pour eXo ».

Les évolutions apportées au programme partenaire (qui a permis de construire une base importante de partenaires Intégrateurs en Europe Occidentale), ont pour but d’étendre la visibilité d’eXo et de renforcer sa capacité à servir de nouveaux clients sur des régions en fort développement comme l’Europe centrale, l’Europe du Nord ou l’Amérique Latine.

La société a d’ores et déjà signé quatre nouveaux partenariats avec :

  • B2B, dorénavant “Authorized Distributor” en Pologne et qui depuis plusieurs années a démontré une excellente capacité à collaborer avec des éditeurs Open Source de premier plan.
  • DoxoLogic : une SSII tchèque qui développe des solutions et services middleware, des outils d’intégration d’applications et de portails d’entreprise.
