The appOrbit application platform makes applications — and the data they rely on — portable to any modern infrastructure MoreLess
Founded in 2014 by Rahul Ravulur and Aditya Vasudevan, AppOrbit is a San Jose-based company that provides a platform for application modernization. Ravulur, who serves as CEO, brings experience from his time at VMware, guiding the company's vision to simplify the management of enterprise applications. The company emerged from stealth in June 2017, backed by a 2016 Series A funding round from prominent venture capital firms Kleiner Perkins and Costanoa Ventures.
AppOrbit targets enterprise clients facing challenges with digital transformation, aiming to modernize their IT infrastructure without the need for extensive redevelopment projects. Its business model centers on its proprietary application platform, which enables companies to migrate legacy applications, such as those built on Oracle or Siebel, to any cloud, container, or microservice environment without altering the original code. This approach significantly reduces IT expenditures, accelerates release cycles, and mitigates vendor lock-in.
The core of AppOrbit's offering is a container-based platform that effectively decouples applications from their underlying infrastructure. This allows for the holistic management of both traditional three-tier and modern microservice-based applications. A key feature is the ability to clone entire application environments, including data, for development, testing, and production fixes, thereby streamlining DevOps processes. By automating the modeling, delivery, and management of software, the platform allows clients to move applications to modern infrastructures in a fraction of the time traditionally required. The company has established a partner ecosystem with global systems integrators like Wipro, Infosys, and Capgemini to scale its solution delivery.
