Applatix joins Intuit!
We are excited to announce that Applatix is joining Intuit!
Two and a half years ago, we started Applatix with a vision of creating a new type of platform for developing and running applications and services in the public cloud. This vision was borne from our own experience in delivering quality products while continuously scaling the teams, infrastructure, and services. Virtualization and automation were transformative in achieving these goals. Containers and cloud have the potential to provide another quantum leap.
Applatix’s focus has been to provide the essential building blocks based on containers and public cloud to enable enterprises to quickly and continuously develop and deploy software and services. As the new ecosystem began to evolve, we have embraced and worked with the rapidly growing Kubernetes community, and our enthusiasm for its potential as a core building block in enterprise software deployment has grown immensely.
Our first contribution to this new ecosystem is Argo, an open source container-native workflow engine for Kubernetes. You can think of Argo as an engine for feeding and tending a Kubernetes cluster. Argo natively leverages containers and makes it easy to specify, schedule and coordinate the running of complex workflows and applications on Kubernetes. We often think of Argo as a “shell” for your cloud. It puts the computational power of a cloud supercomputer at your fingertips.
As a part of Intuit, we will continue to pursue our passion to accelerate and transform the delivery of software at massive scale to thousands of developers and millions of customers around the world. We are thankful to our early adopter customers, colleagues, partners, and the community at large for their support and to Intuit for giving us the opportunity to continue our mission and together, power prosperity around the world.
Hope to see you all at the next KubeCon or at a meetup near you.
