Unlimited power to innovate in the 'Cloud'
Just like the changes that moved publishing technology from paper to bits, making it possible for us to have information about anything in the world right at our fingertips, the move to application development in the 'Cloud' is making it possible to build robust, enterprise-class applications that are available from any location at any time.
The Breato platform provides the tools to enable a new era of applications in the 'Cloud' that bring the power and success of web based development to your company. New types of web-based application can now be built with Breato's Designer, which provides wizards for those with a little knowledge of programming, or a suite of tools that allow complex applications to be built if you have an understanding of SQL and JavaScript. Breato also has the Gateway which provides an application programming interface that allows you to use the most popular development languages to create client-side applications. The resulting applications enable developers to take advantage of:
- All the benefits of hosted applications, including built-in security, reliability, upgradeability, and ease of use.
- Out-of-the-box features that will speed development, including analytics and mobile deployment.
- Freedom from managing server infrastructure, even as applications scale to thousands of users.
- Participation in a community of developers.
- The ability to reach new customers through the Breato Marketplace.
By eliminating the problems of traditional application development, the 'Cloud' computing model frees you to focus on developing solutions that deliver real business value. The Breato platform lets IT innovate while avoiding the costs and headaches associated with servers, individual software solutions, middleware or point-to-point connections, upgrades, and the staff needed to manage it all.
Point. Click. Create.
Unique to the Breato platform is the Designer, which uses a point-and-click approach to creating applications. The Designer eliminates the need for programming know-how. With only a Web browser, business users, administrators, and developers can define the metadata that results in the 'blueprint' for an application, including the data model, objects, forms, and more. To build more complex applications, developers with a knowledge of JavaScript and SQL can use the Designer to build highly sophisticated applications that can meet the most demanding requirements of businesses.
Sandbox
Sometimes you might be happy to do little bits of development on your operational system. For all other occasions, you can create a Sandbox. The Sandbox is an exact copy of your system at a point in time. You can undertake your development within it and, when you are happy, export your changes to your live system.
Go with what you know
When you need to integrate Breato with other systems or create mashups with external services, you can use the Breato Gateway in combination with most popular development languages to create highly visual, interactive applications. With the Gateway, developers can directly access all data stored in their Breato applications.
