Accelerating the Enterprise Application Lifecycle

Accelerating the Enterprise Application Lifecycle

Many enterprises are awash in complex, heavyweight, and inflexible application infrastructure that clogs the application lifecycle—significantly impacting the ability to deliver solutions in a timely manner.

SpringSource forges open source innovations transforming the enterprise Java software market into software products that accelerate the entire Build, Run, Manage enterprise Java application lifecycle:

By unifying and streamlining the process between application development and operations, SpringSource enables our customers to remove the obstacles that impede delivery of the solutions the business demands. See for yourself what others have realized: simplicity across the build, run, and manage lifecycle directly enables you to:

  • Accelerate Time to Value
  • Reduce Cost and Complexity
  • Improve Productivity and Quality
Build

SpringSource leads enterprise Java innovation with Spring, the de facto standard programming model for enterprise Java applications, rich web, and enterprise integration applications. More than half of the Fortune 500 power their Java applications with Spring, and about two thirds of all Java developers use Spring. More than 70 percent of enterprises cite improved productivity, faster project completion, improved portability and application quality as top reasons for using Spring.

SpringSource is driving even higher levels of innovation with Groovy and Grails, a dynamic language web application stack offering productivity benefits rivaling Ruby on Rails, but built on the proven capabilities and scalability of a Spring-powered enterprise Java platform. Developers love using Grails because they can complete robust, feature-rich web applications in weeks rather months.

SpringSource offers the best and most complete set of Eclipse-based tools for creating Java, Spring, and Grails applications that run on the most popular application servers. SpringSource Tool Suite is an integrated, tested and certified development environment providing a rich set of visual development tools, wizards, and a task-focused user interface enabling developers to create complex applications much more efficiently.

Run

SpringSource is at the forefront of rapid enterprise adoption of lightweight application server runtimes and contributes 95 percent of bug fixes to Apache Tomcat, the most popular application server with 68 percent usage across IT organizations. SpringSource tc Server is an enterprise version of Tomcat that provides developers with the lightweight server they want paired with the operational, management and diagnostic capabilities businesses need to deploy Tomcat widely across the enterprise.

A typical enterprise Java web application requires a web server that front ends requests to the application servers. The most widely used Web server is Apache HTTP Server and SpringSource ERS is an enterprise ready version of the Apache HTTP that provides better performance and security and improves service quality, reliability and scalability of Web infrastructures.

Manage

Businesses require application management and monitoring capabilities that provide deep and transparent insight into application performance and service levels as requests flow through the web servers, application servers, databases, message queues and other application infrastructure deployed on physical, virtual, and cloud computing platforms. SpringSource Hyperic HQ is uniquely positioned to address modern application requirements and provide the single source of insight behind the behavior and performance of every layer of an application. Thousands of companies worldwide already depend on Hyperic HQ for their web application and infrastructure management as well as their IT service level commitments.
