CollabNet is proud and pleased to work with many of the innovators in the emerging cloud Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) market. Our friends at VMware Cloud Foundry just celebrated a one-year anniversary that marks significant growth and momentum for the entire space. SOASTA is another key cloud partner that is experiencing super growth as well. With a growing ecosystem of cloud development platforms to choose from and “mix-and-match,” it’s clear that developers and enterprises are increasingly turning to the cloud to build and deploy software that meets the needs of customers.
What we love about this space is the collaborative nature and collective energy that is significantly changing the way we all build and deploy software. We are equally excited about our emerging role in helping enterprises adopt and manage multiple PaaS offerings through a centralized approach. We will continue to contribute to the growing cloud development value chain.
