MongoHQ, the leading provider of cloud-based MongoDBdata hosting and services, is excited to announce a new partnership with CloudBees! The partnership extends our data platform into the rich and innovative Java community. This new relationship will allow developers in the CloudBeesenvironment to more easily and efficiently build out and scale the data layer of their Java applications.
CloudBees provides the only develop-to-deploy cloud Platform as a Service ( PaaS) for Java and serves thousands of Jenkins customers. The CloudBeesplatform provides everything developers need to quickly and easily develop and deploy applications in the cloud — without having to purchase, configure and maintain hardware, and without having to program applications for a specific underlying infrastructure service ( IaaS).
When we started MongoHQ, our primary goal was to make it easy for developers to use MongoDBas the data layer for their applications, allowing them to focus on developing code instead of the complexities of managing their data layer in the cloud. CloudBeesshares this same core belief when it comes to a development platform, and has pioneered it within the Java community. We are excited to partner and offer MongoDBon the fast-growing and powerful CloudBeesplatform.
CloudBees users can add MongoHQ-provisioneddatabases through the CloudBeesEcosystem. The MongoHQadd-on is expected to be available to the community on or before Oct. 1, 2011.
We are very excited to join this growing community as a partner! ~ The MongoHQTeam
