AppScale aims to provide software developers with a rapid Application program interface (API) development platform that can run applications on any cloud infrastructure. The company decouples application logic from its service ecosystem to give developers and cloud administrators control over application deployment, data storage, resource use, backup, and migration. Some example applications of the company's technology include an SaaS provider with over 20 million users cutting their GAE bill in half by moving to AppScale running in GCE, a global Fortune 1000 retailer running their international supply chain app (built on GAE) in China, an artisan e-commerce platform using AppScale for hot backup and disaster recovery from App Engine to AWS, and an enterprise SaaS company uses AppScale to deploy its GAE mobile app platform for customers on-premises.
