 "Salesforce.com To Acquire Heroku")
“The next era of cloud computing is social, mobile and real-time. I call it Cloud 2,” said Marc Benioff, Chairman and CEO, Salesforce.com. “Ruby is the language of Cloud 2, and Heroku is the leading Ruby application platform-as-a-service for Cloud 2 that is fueling this growing community. We think this acquisition will uniquely position Salesforce.com as the cornerstone for the next generation of app developers.”
“We have a service that developers really love, and Salesforce.com has the trust and credibility the most demanding customers expect,” said Byron Sebastian, CEO, Heroku. “Together, we will provide the best place to run and deploy Cloud 2 apps. We believe this is the winning combination to bring cloud application platforms into the mainstream of the enterprise.”
Salesforce.com anticipates that the acquisition will help it attract and serve a critical mass of developers, customers and ISVs wanting an open, scalable and trusted Cloud 2 platform.
