FeedHenry Launches First Commercially Available HTML5 Node.js Platform for Building Enterprise Apps

FeedHenry is One of Only 35 Companies Selected to Compete in NodeJam at NodeSummit, San Francisco, January 24-25

Node Summit, San Francisco, CA – January 24, 2012FeedHenry, the developer of cloud-based mobile application solutions, has launched the first enterprise mobility solution that allows developers to build HTML5, JavaScript and hybrid apps with a fully integrated Node.js backend-as-a-service.   It is the first commercially available mobile app platform-as-a-service that allows developers to use the same JavaScript skills to build a mobile app client and powerful backend functionality that leverages the non-blocking, event-driven I/O architecture of Node.js.  By building in one code base developers increase their efficiency and speed app development while cutting the costs of deploying apps for multiple mobile platforms.

In the FeedHenry studio, developers can now build highly complex and visually stunning mobile apps using HTML5 and JavaScript that will run as native apps on all major smartphones and tablet devices.  These apps can be developed using any third-party JavaScript library or HTML5 UI/UX toolkit and connect through RESTful API calls to a fully integrated server-side backend. This server-side business and integration logic is developed in Node.js using Javascript. Developers can use any of the standard FeedHenry APIs for integration, caching, storage, or encryption and are free to include other third party JavaScript libraries.

At build-time, the client code is pushed to a build farm where the native binary is created; the server-side code is staged with a single command to the FeedHenry cloud or to any public or private cloud supporting Node.js.  The mobile application platform automatically synchronizes the app client with the Node.js backend and provides automatic scaling, for the entire solution as well as built-in redundancy, security, lifecycle management and reporting.

FeedHenry is one of only 35 companies selected to compete in the Node Summit’s NodeJam, January 24-25, 2012 in San Francisco. FeedHenry was also named as one of the winners in Yankee Group’s “2012 Mobility Predictions: A Year of Living Dangerously”.  FeedHenry’s enterprise development platform was listed as a winner alongside Antenna Systems, Pyxis and Salesforce.com’s Heroku in the category “HTML5 Will Cross the Enterprise Tipping Point.”

“As enterprises mature with their mobility initiatives and start getting into more sophisticated apps where they need complex integration with the backend and the cloud, the play will shift to the server side,” said Cathal McGloin, CEO, FeedHenry.   “The server side will become a crucial part of every mobile initiative as enterprises see how much more they can do with apps to increase revenue and boost employee productivity.  Apps are fast becoming the new tool within organizations, but with that there’s the headache on the server side with security, scalability, performance and management.  With Node.js, FeedHenry’s mobile application platform offers an easy way to build mobile app solutions for the enterprise that takes care of the server side functionality.”

FeedHenry is the only company to offer a fully integrated suite where developers can build the client side code and the server-side code using JavaScript and deploy to any Node.js environment with a single push. FeedHenry helps enterprises go from concept to prototype in six to eight weeks.

About FeedHenry’s Node.js Solution

Node.js is a development tool that is specifically designed for server-side execution; it offers a high degree of efficiency and performance via an event-driven I/O environment and is ideal for building sophisticated mobile apps that require integration to backend systems. FeedHenry offers a completely integrated set of enterprise tools for building, deploying, and managing enterprise mobile apps.  Developers can access the FeedHenry AppStudio development environment, or download the FHC (the FeedHenry Command Line tool) using npm, the node package manager, and use the same programming language for the entire solution. FeedHenry’s server-side business and integration logic is developed in Node.js using JavaScript. Developers can use any of the standard FeedHenry APIs for integration, caching, storage, or encryption and can also use third party JavaScript Node.js modules.

FeedHenry and Court Square Partner to Deliver First Cloud-Powered HIPAA Compliant Mobile App to Health New England Members

Secure Cloud Environment Gives Mobile App to HNE Members to Access Health-Care Information Quickly and Easily via Smartphones and Tablets

Springfield, MA – Sept 7, 2011 – FeedHenry (www.feedhenry.com) the cloud solutions provider for mobile healthcare applications and Court Square Group (www.courtsquaregroup.com), providers of enterprise business solutions and private clouds for regulated industries, announced a joint collaboration to develop and deliver the first fully HIPAA-compliant mobile app solution, powered by the cloud, to Health New England (www.hne.com) (HNE).  With this mobile app, HNE a managed care organization, majority owned by Baystate Health, will be able to provide its members with a provider directory and member ID application 24/7 from any smartphone or tablet.  Members will also be able to trigger directions from their current location, call a provider or access ID cards, which provide policy numbers, member numbers and various co-pay and deductible amounts.

Developed on the FeedHenry mobile application platform, the mobile app integrates securely with HNE member information systems by storing and caching member details and logic in the Court Square private cloud.  HIPAA compliance is ensured through FeedHenry’s end-to-end security framework from mobile device to internal system endpoints and through the deployment in Court Square’s cloud, enabling HNE to have a fully HIPAA-compliant and privately-hosted mobile solution. The partnership combines enterprise-grade mobility and cloud expertise, giving a secure and scalable cloud solution for healthcare and life science organizations to take advantage of the growth in mobile health apps.

“HNE is an innovative and service oriented organization.  We believe that this is an opportunity to provide our members with an even higher level of service at their fingertips. We chose the Member ID Card and the Provider Search because these are the highest traffic areas on our website: www.hne.com. We anticipate that this will be the first of many mobile applications that we will provide to our customers, members, employers, brokers and providers,” said Phil LaCombe, VP of IT, Health New England, “Court Square and FeedHenry worked closely with our team to deliver this app which we believe is the first truly HIPAA compliant cloud-based mhealth app to be deployed across multiple mobile devices from the same code base. The process was fast, seamless and above all, met our criteria for user experience and secure data integration to our internal systems.”

“Court Square has been working with virtual networks and cloud technology in regulated environments for many years and understands the special requirements necessary to comply with HIPAA, FDA and other regulated environments. FeedHenry’s fully cloud-based development and server-side architecture meant we could quickly build the app for HNE and fully integrate with backend systems via the Court Square regulated cloud which manages storage, caching, business logic, app management and security.” said Court Square CEO, Keith Parent.

FeedHenry CEO, Cathal McGloin, commented, “FeedHenry’s relationship with Court Square allows us to deliver mobile app solutions that adhere to strict privacy regulations and standards while satisfying the needs for speed and flexibility of deployment.  Now HNE members benefit by being able to access information quickly, easily and securely on-the-go.   With the explosion in smartphone use, Health Care providers can now take advantage of this growing market yet remain fully compliant with HIPPA standards.”

HNE anticipates release of the mobile app during the third quarter of 2011.  The app will be free of charge to any smartphone, tablet or web-enabled mobile user.
