As many of you know, LongJump.com uses MySQL Enterprise Edition as our backend database. Like many, we chose it for its scalability, refined support and performance-for-value business case.

Sun Microsystem‘s MySQL has invited us to present a case study for rapidly building SaaS applications. Enterprises and ISVs acknowledge the trend toward SaaS and many are looking for cost effective ways to SaaS-enable their applications, their processes and their business models to enable greater efficiency and collaboration. However, the best path to developing SaaS applications still remains uncharted.

This webinar will feature Brian Gerhold, Director of Engineering at Simco Electronics and Pankaj Malviya, Founder/CEO of LongJump. In this presentation we’ll examine how Simco’s development team built a next-generation SaaS application which automated data collection, reporting and compliance leveraging MySQL and the LongJump development platform.

Brain will discuss how Simco approached common SaaS application development problems and the solutions that lead to their success.

If you are interested in learning more about how you can accelerate the development and deployment of MySQL-backed multi-tenant SaaS applications, in your data center, hosted environments or in the cloud, this webinar is for you.

• Thursday, June 11, 2009: 13:00 (1PM) Pacific time
