Aptana Cloud

Introducing Aptana Cloud

Aptana Cloud is a scalable Elastic Application Cloud™ featuring the most popular and widely adopted Web infrastructure, ready to use and ready to scale as you need it. Aptana Cloud also plugs right into your IDE to provide instant deployment, smart synchronization, and seamless migration as you scale. Aptana Cloud is ideal for developers who use scripting languages to create Ajax, Facebook, mySpace and all other sorts of Web applications.

We're in beta release right now. If you'd like to get started now request early access.

Get Your Own Cloud

Each instance within Aptana Cloud comes with:

Apache, mySQL, PHP -- a solid "AMP" stack whether you run locally on Linux or not.
Aptana Jaxer -- use your JavaScript and Ajax skills on the server-side to build entire apps, data services, or presentation tiers that complement PHP and Ruby On Rails.
Ruby on Rails support coming soon.

Reliable and Scalable

Aptana Cloud is architected to complement Cloud infrastructure providers like Amazon, Google, Joyent and others. To get started we've selected Joyent who serves up some of the largest of all Facebook apps.

Your apps can tap up to 95% of the 8+ cores on each server in the Cloud.
Includes up to 10 terabytes of data transfer per month.

What Developers Are Saying

Even though there are now many IDEs that profess compatibility with Rails, Aptana/RadRails should still be a go-to editor for Rails development.
-- Dr. Nic. Ruby on Rails Guru, Dr. Nic Academy.

Since Aptana Studio is based on Eclipse, I can take advantage of the vast number of Eclipse plugins like Mylyn, the Bazaar plugin, GotoFile, QuantumDB, SQL Explorer, etc...,
-- Scott Bronson, Web consultant, San Francisco.

RadRails has quickly become a critical tool for our development. Of all the rails tools I have tried, including Netbeans, it's the best. Not only is it evolving at a maddening speed but the user support is one of the best I have met.
-- Juan Alonso, Engineering Director, LaFlecha.net

And of course, RadRails extends Aptana Studio which provides additional state-of-the-art utilities for HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code editing and debugging.
