Servoy Partners with EuroCloud

Monday, October 26th, 2009

Servoy has become a partner with EuroCloud - Europe’s FIRST EVER SaaS and cloud services community.

EuroCloud serves to:

  • Build a pan European network organized in two tiers with a national level (France, Espagna, England, Belgique, etc.)  and a European level. The national level focuses on local topics and the European level on European topics, under the EuroCloud brand (or another if appropriate in a national setting).
  • Build relationships with the European authorities (Commission and Parliament) to help recognize the Cloud Computing industry as the future of IT in Europe and to promote a stimulating environment for development and growth of the industry.
  • Promote business relationships between members throughout Europe and internationally with counterparts such as SIIA.
  • Promote technological relationships between members throughout Europe and internationally.

In addition, several leading analysts have commented on the importance of this initiative:

“Cloud computing is more than just a buzz phrase. It is here to stay and is expected to take an increasing share of total IT spending worldwide. The creation of EuroCloud is a major step for the European development of cloud computing. For example, it will find investment opportunities in start-up companies in Europe that develop solutions for hybrid cloud, which is expected to experience increased demand over the coming years.” - Dan Yachin, research director, IDC EMEA Emerging Technologies.

The adoption of SaaS continues to grow and evolve within the enterprise application markets. Tighter capital budgets in the current economic environment have demanded leaner alternatives, and cost-effective options, so interest in platforms as a service and cloud computing continue to grow. As evidence, adoption of the on-demand deployment model has grown for nearly a decade, but its popularity has increased significantly within the last five years. Initial concerns about security response time and service availability have diminished for many organisations. As SaaS business and computing models have matured, adoption has become more widespread.” - Sharon Mertz, research director at Gartner.

Servoy Launch in Thailand

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Servoy Fast. Flexible. Sexy. SaaS.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

For release: September 29, 2009
Contact: Kanokwan Boonlert Visser, Public Relations, Serv-it Asia Co., Ltd., (02) 664-0977 or k.visser@servitasia.com

Servoy launch in Thailand

Servoy’s success in hybrid platform market space now gives Thai ISVs the speed to compete.

Press Release Bangkok, Thailand (September 29, 2009) - On August 17, 2009 Servoy, an award-winning platform provider for fast, flexible, and sexy SaaS hybrid solutions, already announced it had opened an office in Thailand to meet overwhelming demand for its leading SaaS (Software as a Service) hybrid platform — Servoy. Servoy’s platform allows development of green IT hybrid applications — which can be deployed as SaaS and on-premises through both a browser and a native client — from a single code base.

Today, Serv-it Asia, the distributor of Servoy in Asia announces the official product launch of Servoy in Thailand on October 16, 2009 as part of the ServoyWorld 2009 on tour. During this whole day event, which will take place in the Amari Boulevard hotel, ISV’s, Software Developers and IT Specialists will have a chance to see how creating hybrid applications in Thailand from now on is more efficient than ever using Servoy’s SaaS hybrid platform. Keynote speakers will include Jan Aleman, CEO of Servoy and Thanachart Numnonda, Ph.D., Business Development Manager at Sun Microsystems. Each attendant will receive a free copy of Servoy.

According to international research firm IDC, SaaS is booming, and IDC’s ‘hot-off-the-press’ forecast shows that SaaS offerings are one of the few hot spots in the world of business IT. Servoy’s rapid proliferation of the global software market reflects its success in providing flexible hybrid solutions specifically tailored for decision makers — solutions that, according to Aleman, are built on technology designed to handle the complexity and turbulence of modern business.

“ISV’s particularly have a hunger to deliver a superior solution to their customers seeking hybrid deployment options.” says Gert Visser, Managing Director of Serv-it Asia, “At the same time, ISVs don’t want to lock their customers into a SaaS-only mode, but want to offer what we call ‘SaaS and back’ — the option to run on-premises at any moment. Servoy supports these kind of hybrid setups out of the box.”
