WaveMaker 6.1 for Linux Delivers Cloud Portability to Citizen Developers

Easy-To-Use Cloud Development Platform for Debian, Red Hat and Ubuntu Supports Multiple Clouds

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 3, 2010

WaveMaker Software™, the only open and easy-to-use cloud development platform, today announced that it has released version 6.1 of its platform for the Debian, Red Hat and Ubuntu operating systems. WaveMaker provides visual development and one-click deployment of web applications to Amazon EC2, Rackspace Cloud, OpSource Cloud, and Eucalyptus Private Cloud.

Gartner predicts that by 2014, 25% of enterprise applications will be built by Citizen Developers who are not IT experts. By eliminating the complexity of building and deploying cloud applications, WaveMaker 6.1 enables these Citizen Developers to take advantage of cloud computing.

The WaveMaker 6.1 for Linux release includes significant enhancements:

• One-click deployment to Amazon EC2, Rackspace Cloud, Eucalyptus and OpSource.
• Automated multi-tenancy and secure, tenant ID-based data isolation.
• Dynamic widget loading for up to 500% faster performance.
• Rich text editor, Twitter feed and other widgets.
• Improved SVN integration for team development.

"Cloud portability is a critical feature for enterprise adoption of cloud computing," said Jeff Kaplan, Managing Director of THINKstrategies. "With their latest release, WaveMaker is leading the way in offering an open and easy-to-use cloud development platform that delivers portability across multiple clouds."

"One of the biggest gaps on the Linux platform is the lack of visual development tools for web and cloud development," said Chris Keene, CEO of WaveMaker. "With this release, WaveMaker has eliminated the complexity of building and deploying portable cloud applications for Debian, Red Hat and Ubuntu users, opening up the benefits of cloud computing to the entire Linux community."
