eXo Cloud IDE Gives Developers an On-Ramp to VMware Cloud Foundry PaaS

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

The Industry’s Only Cloud IDE for Java Applications Improves Developer Productivity by Deploying Applications Directly to Cloud Foundry

  • Develop Java, Spring, Ruby and other apps in the cloud; deploy direct to cFoundry
  • Access cloud-resident code from virtually any computer
  • Intro webinar on eXo Cloud IDE scheduled for September 8: http://budurl.com/ubm3
  • View video about deploying with eXo Cloud IDE at http://budurl.com/aevz

SAN FRANCISCO — August 24, 2011 — eXo, the enterprise Java portal and cloud user experience platform (UXP) company, today announced that its eXo Cloud IDE, the industry’s only cloud-based integrated development environment (IDE) for Java applications, has added Cloud Foundry™ to its roster of supported platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offerings. Developers deploying Java, Spring, Ruby and other types of applications to Cloud Foundry can now take advantage of the increased agility and accessibility delivered by cloud computing. View the related video at http://budurl.com/aevz.

Cloud computing and PaaS offerings have been evolving for some time, but until now developers have not actually been able to build Java applications in the cloud. With eXo Cloud IDE, developing and deploying Java apps becomes much more streamlined and makes cloud platforms more accessible to developers.

“Cloud IDE makes it possible for developers to collaborate on building Java applications in the cloud, apps that they can deploy directly to Cloud Foundry in minutes,” said Benjamin Mestrallet, founder and CEO of eXo. “The code now lives in the cloud, accessible from virtually anywhere with a browser and Internet access—so creating an app and moving it into Cloud Foundry is now very easy.”

eXo is showcasing Cloud IDE in booth #171W at VMworld® 2011, being held at The Venetian and The Wynn hotels in Las Vegas, August 29–September 1, 2011. A webinar introducing eXo Cloud IDE is scheduled for September 8, 2011; participants can register at http://budurl.com/ubm3.

Expanding Opportunities

eXo Cloud IDE expands the options for developers. It is the only development-as-a-service (DaaS) offering to support Java application development, and the first to support Java Spring applications. It’s the only offering that developers can use to build Java applications in a cloud-based IDE and deploy them directly to a PaaS. With the announcement of Cloud IDE as an on-ramp to Cloud Foundry, eXo Cloud IDE now supports a total of four PaaS environments. eXo has already announced eXo Cloud IDE support for CloudBees, Heroku and Red Hat OpenShift.

Today, developers around the world are using eXo Cloud IDE to collaborate on the creation of HTML5/JavaScript applications and OpenSocial gadgets as well as Java-, PHP-, and Ruby-based web apps. Support for additional languages, frameworks and PaaS environments is planned for the future.

eXo Cloud IDE Webinar

On September 8, eXo developer evangelist Jeremi Joslin will host a webinar on eXo Cloud IDE for developers and IT managers. Starting at 8:00 a.m. Pacific time, Jeremi will cover topics ranging from the advantages of developing in the cloud to deploying applications to PaaS offerings such as Cloud Foundry, Heroku, OpenShift and others. For more information and to register, go to http://budurl.com/ubm3.

eXo Introduces the Evaluation Toolkit: New Resources for Java Developers and Project Managers

Thursday, July 7th, 2011

Evaluation Toolkit Streamlines Task of Compiling Information Needed to Evaluate eXo Platform 3 for Social Intranet and Enterprise Portal Projects

SAN FRANCISCO — July 7, 2011 — eXo, the enterprise Java portal and cloud user experience platform (UXP) company, today announced the launch of its Evaluation Toolkit: Vendor Evaluation Resources for Social Intranet and Enterprise Portal Projects at http://evaluation.exoplatform.com/index.html.

What is the Evaluation Toolkit?

The Evaluation Toolkit provides clear and concise information about the features and technical specs of eXo Platform 3, as well as the experience and skills required to successfully work with eXo. The site features a new, in-depth case study of a social intranet based on eXo Platform 3: “The Unexpected Benefits of the Social Enterprise.” Additional resources include:

  • customer testimonials
  • customer success stories
  • technical articles
  • tutorials and demos

Performance benchmarks and step-by-step project guides will be added soon.

Who will benefit?

The Evaluation Toolkit was built expressly for Java developers and project managers charged with building a transactional website, building a new company intranet, or adding social network features to an existing intranet.

Why is the Evaluation Toolkit being offered?

The task of compiling a list of vendors and product specifications to evaluate for software development projects can be an exercise in frustration. Information is either hidden or missing from vendor websites. When information is found, it’s often incomplete or confusing. The Evaluation Toolkit presents a helpful, complete resource that puts everything in one place and in the language Java developers and project managers understand.

How was it developed?

The Evaluation Toolkit reflects the customer-focused philosophy that drives product development at eXo. To help organize and deliver the content of the Evaluation Toolkit, eXo gathered actual vendor evaluation resources from both partners and customers. The resulting toolkit mirrors the typical categories of a vendor evaluation and project requirements document.
