Aptana Unveils Cloud Integration for Java and Eclipse

Company announces availability of Java support in its application hosting and life-cycle management service Aptana Cloud Connect.

Aptana, Inc., a provider of web development, deployment and management solutions, yesterday announced the availability of Java support in its application hosting and life-cycle management service, Aptana Cloud Connect. The company says that Aptana Cloud Connect is architected to integrate with both leading cloud hosting providers and Aptana Studio, the popular open source web development IDE that also plugs into Eclipse. It claims that by integrating directly with Eclipse via Aptana Studio, Aptana Cloud Connect delivers unprecedented efficiency for authoring, deploying and managing Java, Ruby on Rails, PHP, and other types of web applications running in cloud data centers.

The company articulates that this initial release of Java support via Aptana Cloud Connect focuses on web applications using Java Servlets, Java Servlet Pages (JSP), Java Server Faces (JSF), The Spring Framework for Java, and related technologies. It adds that optimized configurations of Apache Tomcat, the ubiquitous open source Servlet engine, and MySQL come installed by default.

"Cloud computing is already saving organizations of all sizes lots of time and money. Today's cloud computing services let organizations purchase scalable CPU cycles as they need them rather than having to procure, set up and manage whole servers. Aptana Cloud Connect lets you do that too, but goes much further to bring extreme efficiency to the whole application lifecycle," said Paul Colton, CEO and Founder of Aptana.

"Click a button and Aptana Cloud Connect automatically provisions cloud computing resources, installs and configures application environments with ready to use databases, sets up source control services, manages access credential for the whole development team, and wires it all into Aptana Studio for the ultimate in development and deployment ease. And if you want to scale, just move a slider to increase the memory, storage, and CPU capacity in seconds." he added.
