How many software only companies that you know have been around for over 30 years?Progress started in a old dentist office in Nashua, New Hampshire. Back then, every office had a sink and running hot and cold water!We are now headquartered in Bedford, Massachusetts.We have over 1600 employees in many countries around the world.
Progress started out with a relational database and a 4GL language to access that database.The database, quoted as “the best database on the 3rd planet from the sun” is remarkably stable, resilient and extremely low maintenance.The language is easy to understand and write and data access is very quickWe don’t write applications, we have partners that write applications. Our job, is to make our partners successful!
Again, our job is to make our partners successful.SaaS is “Software as a Service”. Instead of buying software you lease it. SaaS licensing is growing on average at 20% year over year.So how did SaaS get introduced get to partners – over 10 years, 7 years put together a process found our AP’s didn’t understand how to host SaaS
To help our partners move to SaaS the Cloud seems the fastest way. But how can they get started without a 2 to 3 week commitment to cloud?Arcade is our answer
This is a buildFull screen no highlighted sectionHere is the first page a customer would go to in the Stage&Test – PROGRESS DEPLOYMENTS 2) Fly-in highlight of AppServer w/Replication – Windows/LinuxAt the bottom are deployment templates that can be seen by everyone and users would select and make their own copy of the deployment3) Fly-in highlight of “roy” deployment is MY DEPLOYMENTSHere a deployment would only be seen by the user that createdTo start they would select the deployment and hit START4) Fly-in highlight in MY INSTANCESThis is the running deploymentTo get to the machine – select “Connect”
We expect our Cloud deployments for our customers to use “Best Practices”. That includes a web server machine in a DMZ and AppServer/DB behind 2 layers of protectionAlso, we don’t want our customers having to figure all of this out, we want it to just work “behind the scenes”So our web server machine needs to know where our AppServer machine is and how to contact it after it startsRightScale tags solve this problem…
