WaveMaker 6.1 - Cloud Development On A Roll!

WaveMaker is on a roll - having hit profitability at the end of last year, we are now targeting 300% growth for 2010. This week, we announced the latest release of WaveMaker.

With our 6.1 released, WaveMaker truly delivers on our "PowerBuilder for the Cloud" vision. We are the only company offering visual, browser-based development of cloud applications that comply with enterprise Java standards.

By eliminating the complexity of building and deploying cloud applications, WaveMaker 6.1 enables these Citizen Developers to take advantage of cloud computing. Cool new features include:


  • 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

In keeping with Gartner's prediction that cloud computing will create a major shift in how "Citizen Developers" build applications, we are seeing the bulk of our growth come from companies migrating from proprietary platforms to open Java. WaveMaker is an ideal open Java alternative for Oracle Apex, Microsoft Access, Microsoft .NET, PowerBuilder, Lotus Notes and Coldfusion.

Hi Chris, Congrats with the latest WaveMaker release. I really think you guys are on the right path with the browser based IDE, the RAD screen development and integration with the cloud.

But, I do have to be honest and for me it doens't really live up to what I envisaged "PowerBuilder for the Cloud" to be. I just don't think "PowerBuilder for the Cloud" would have gone for java under the hood ... then again I also disagree with the .Net path Sybase (or is it SAP now) is taking with PowerBuilder :)

Anyhow, I am glad WaveMaker is successful and its nice to see how far you guys have come since the early ActiveGrid days!
