Stackato Benefits

From the desktop to the datacenter, Stackato makes it easy to develop, deploy, migrate, scale, manage, and monitor applications on any cloud.

Whether you're a large enterprise with your own private cloud or data center, a cloud hosting provider, or a SaaS provider, Stackato enables you to reduce the amount of time spent on IT configuration and get your applications to market faster. No more waiting for weeks before deploying an application. With Stackato, developers can self-serve and get apps to the cloud in minutes, not weeks, saving you time, resources and money.

With Stackato, CIOs can:

  • Achieve ROI more quickly with faster time to market and more efficient use of assets
  • Lower costs: one platform for deploying new apps or migrating legacy applications to the cloud
  • Benefit from tighter security, better compliance and more control over secure, sensitive data
  • Maintain flexibility while avoiding vendor lock-in. If business needs change, the business remains agile.

Enterprise IT & System Administration Teams will:

  • Save significant IT configuration time:
    Reduce the amount of time and manual effort spent on configuring new stacks for each application with Stackato's on-demand self-service and automatic configuration.
  • Respond to business needs faster:
    Create a private PaaS for developers across all business units, to help development teams get their applications to market faster, whether deploying new or migrating existing applications.
  • Ensure compliance with privacy and security requirements while keeping data and applications secure and private.
  • Avoid lock-in with an infrastructure-agnostic PaaS solution that keeps your applications portable.
  • Keep control of infrastructure, while avoiding data silos and "rogue" clouds
  • Deploy to any cloud: private, public or hybrid

Enterprise Development Teams can:

  • Use a Stackato Micro Cloud to simulate a production environment to code, debug and test before deploying live.
  • Get applications to market faster: Simply push from the desktop—Stackato automatically configures the rest for quick and seamless deployment to the cloud.
  • Enjoy freedom of flexibility with choice: choose the best data service, language and framework for each application.
  • Choose from multiple deployment options: deploy from Komodo IDE, Eclipse STS, or the command line to a public, private or hybrid cloud.

Cloud Hosting Providers benefit from:

  • Additional revenue stream and increased share-of-wallet with clients
  • A competitive advantage with a PaaS offering to differentiate in a competitive cloud hosting provide market
  • Greater client loyalty with “stickiness” of a PaaS offering
  • Time savings in application operations for custom applications by enabling client self-service
