Bungee Labs<\/a> unveiled the Bungee Connect on-demand development environment at the Web 2.0 Expo<\/a> in San Francisco in mid-April.\u00a0 The new platform targets small and medium sized businesses, allowing them\u00a0to quickly create highly-scalable Web 2.0 applications based on APIs from Google, Salesforce, Amazon, eBay, Microsoft, PayPal, RealNetworks\u00a0and others.\u00a0 Dana Gardner is calling\u00a0the combination of SaaS, Services and focus on Developer requirement\u00a0SDDS<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One thing sure to attract attention is their cost model.\u00a0 Bungee provides the platform and infrastructure.\u00a0 It is serving as a ‘computing utility’ — and you only pay for it when you yourself can make money from the application you create.\u00a0 Developers aren’t charged to use or test their application, only after the application is turned on for commercial business.<\/p>\n

This is yet another example of a SaaS ecosystem, but compared to Salesforce Apex and NetSuite, it is much more vendor-neutral in focus.\u00a0 It is unique in the on-demand developer environment that it provides.\u00a0 It doesn’t require developer setups on client machines.\u00a0 There are no web servers to set up, no libraries to install, patch and manage.\u00a0 The developer works through the browser and can deploy the application from the browser.<\/p>\n

Bungee combines Web 2.0 technologies so that applications can be written that bind Ajax controls to the developer’s pages and forms.\u00a0 The controls are designed to use non-browser-specific controls so that the application will run with Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari.\u00a0 Here is an overview diagram of Bungee from the Bungee Connect Website:<\/p>\n
