By leveraging the company’s Choreo platform, a SaaS application development suite designed to accelerate the creation of digital experiences, organizations can increase developer productivity to rapidly build, deploy, monitor, and manage a range of cloud-native applications. And as ransomware attacks increase across the globe, digital businesses can secure their multi-experience apps with WSO2’s SaaS customer identity and access management (CIAM) solution Asgardeo. Built for secure access for consumers, business partners, employees, or even APIs, Asgardeo gives developers advanced but easy-to-use tools for creating smarter, more engaging, intuitive, and data-driven digital experiences.
“We designed WSO2 for Startups with a view to accelerating time-to-market,” said Kanchana Wickremasinghe, Vice President & General Manager Choreo BU at WSO2. “Developers can reuse our B2C and B2B sample app code that has all the out-of-the-box functionality needed to create a secure cloud-native experience for users. They have expert advice at their fingertips, free support, and their Choreo and Asgardeo credits can be put towards component or infrastructure costs, meaning they enjoy a lower cost of ownership straight out of the gate.”
