Leveraging Eucalyptus’ compatibility with the AWS API, the relationship provides customers with maximum application portability between Eucalyptus on-premise environments and AWS public clouds. According to a press release, application agility for complex and multi-tiered business application environments is a critical business problem for IT managers today. Businesses depend on complex apps, composed of multiple components, language environments and platforms to run their operations — yet these application environments can’t be easily implemented and managed using today’s cloud application solutions.

As enterprise applications enter the cloud, the traditional approach of using libraries of server templates for cloud deployments has gotten too unwieldy and rigid to be sustainable — demanding an increasing amount of manual effort for developers who must manage complex custom scripting of each server —and limiting automated application portability.

"With Appcara’s AppStack, enterprises and service providers can deploy cloud applications that are far more easily managed across their lifecycle, and remain portable across Eucalyptus and Amazon Web Services (AWS) public cloud environments. AppStack captures and assembles the entire application environment regardless of languages and development platforms and provides 100 per cent automation throughout the application lifeycle. In addition, AppStack includes the App Marketplace capability, allowing service providers and enterprises to offer self-service publishing capabilities to enable software-as-a-service. Enterprise users can subscribe to software applications using point-and-click user interface — instead of the traditional approach of purchasing licenses and manual installation." the release stated.
