Cordys Process Factorytrade; Wins Best Cloud Management Solution And Best Cloud Application Awards

Cordys, the leading provider of software for business process innovation deployable in the Cloud as a complete Platform as a Service (PaaS), has won two major awards at the first International Cloud Computing Conference and Expo. The company was awarded the Best Cloud Management Solution and the Best Cloud Application at the event held in San Jose, California.

The conference attracted over 1000 delegates who had the opportunity to cast their vote for their favourite Cloud Computing technology provider in five highly competitive categories:

  • Best Overall Cloud Product
  • Best Cloud Platform
  • Best Cloud Storage Solution
  • Best Cloud Management Solution
  • Best Cloud Application
  • At the event, Cordys demonstrated its award winning Cordys Process Factory™ - a multi-tenant platform which facilitates the rapid development and deployment of Web 2.0 applications. It is a simple, reliable and secure solution for anyone to create MashApps® business processes from the Cloud, simply by mixing and matching standard business applications such as Google apps and commercially available services. MashApps® can be made in minutes, without any coding. This tool has the capability to do for Cloud application development environments what Visual Basic did for Windows – it is fast, easy to use, and efficient to develop and deploy applications.

    According to Jan Baan, Founder and CEO of Cordys, the awards recognize the continuous technology development that the company is committed to delivering to its customers. "We are pleased that our technology innovation has been recognized by our peers and our customers. Today businesses need to transform themselves into agile operations capable of turning a constantly changing business environment into opportunities. The current economic climate has fuelled process innovation and the speed of change remains a key competitive differentiator."

    Jon Pyke, Chief Strategy Officer of Cordys commented "The entire field of Computing is fast becoming a "Cloud"—a collection of disembodied services accessible from anywhere and detached from the underlying hardware."

    "There will be many ways in which the Cloud will change businesses and the economy, most of them hard to predict, but one theme is already emerging. Businesses are becoming more like the technology itself: more adaptable, more interwoven and more specialized. These developments may not be new, but the advent of Cloud Computing will speed them up."

    Jan Baan warns that software companies that cast a blind eye to the Web-based model, whether originating online, migrating to SaaS or taking a hybrid approach, will find that the ever-winding road to success will be a frustrating excursion on the road to nowhere.
