Platform-as-a-Service Innovator LongJump Selected by AlwaysOn as an OnDemand Top 100 Winner

Recognized for creating new opportunities in cloud computing and SaaS

SUNNYVALE, CA, April 16, 2010 — LongJump, a leading provider of software that powers Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), today announced that it has been chosen by AlwaysOn as one of the OnDemand Top 100 winners. Inclusion in the OnDemand 100 signifies leadership amongst its peers and game-changing approaches and technologies that are likely to disrupt existing markets and entrenched players. LongJump was specially selected by the AlwaysOn editorial team and industry experts spanning the globe based on a set of five criteria: innovation, market potential, commercialization, stakeholder value, and media buzz.

LongJump and the OnDemand Top 100 companies will be honored at AlwaysOn's OnDemand event on April 19th, 2010, at Hewlett-Packard's Worldwide Headquarters in Palo Alto, CA.

This two-and-a-half-day executive event features CEO presentations and high-level debates on how the Internet is disrupting how companies—from small businesses to large enterprises—create, store, distribute, analyze, and take advantage of their mission-critical data.

"As the digital information created by businesses continues to explode at astronomical rates, the need to store, manage, analyze, and share this information is becoming extremely challenging," said Tony Perkins, founder and editor of AlwaysOn. "We congratulate this year's OnDemand 100 for providing the technology platforms and services needed to manage and leverage this new era of information complexity and overload."

"AlwaysOn's OnDemand Top 100 is a welcomed honor for LongJump primarily because it recognizes the shift for the software industry from traditional development to the need for rapid, flexible public and private-cloud based models," said Pankaj Malviya, CEO and Founder of LongJump. “LongJump is about helping companies focus on their core competencies, not reinventing common components.”

The OnDemand 100 winners were selected from among hundreds of other technology companies nominated by investors, bankers, journalists, and industry insiders. The AlwaysOn editorial team conducted a rigorous three-month selection process to finalize the 2010 list.

LongJump’s comprehensive approach to helping enterprises and ISVs solve the complex design, development, deployment and distribution of software-as-a-service and web-based applications is unique in the industry. Taking a complete ecosystem approach with their cloud application platform, LongJump has significantly reduced time to market for companies looking to enter the SaaS market with their unique branded applications and has enabled enterprises to dramatically reduce IT support for long tail application projects.
