I wanted to write this for a very long time nowâ¦so finallyâ¦Iâm very proud to announce a new success story: ApptiveGrid ApptiveGrid is a SaaS tool to digitalize and automatize business processes. On the one hand ApptiveGrid is visual database that enables you to model your database via web frontend. At the same time this model is available via REST API. On top of the data model a form creator turns your model into a form that you can send e.g. via email to inquire data from other people⦠On the other hand ApptiveGrid is a workflow system where you can define your work flow in the web frontend and connect to events. These events are either internal (resulting from a change in your data model) or external where you can use web hooks to kick of work flows. With the combination of both parts ApptiveGrid is able to solve many of modern digital workflows. It enables to make it for low cost and in almost no time which are two pretty good reasons to use it. If you want to use it just visit: http://www.apptivegrid.de. ApptiveGrid provides a start plan at no cost where most of the functionalities are available. If you have additional needs just write me. For the people in the pharo community Iâm sure we can provide a bit more on top. About the tech stack: - The business backend of ApptiveGrid is 100% pharo - It uses https://github.com/svenvc/zinc components for the HTTP frontend - and https://github.com/ApptiveGrid/Soil as the persistence solution. - Each user has its own database (an empty soil database is 24kb on disk, could be made even approx. 5kb). There are over 3100 databases in the system right now - one pharo image holds multiple soil databases open and provides memory caching for the objects - routing of requests is done with haproxy connection persistence - the web frontend is made with Vue.js and a pharo library that we transpile to JS with PharoJS If you are interested you can also watch my ESUG videos at https://www.youtube.com/@esugboard. All talks in the last 2 years were about ApptiveGrid If you have question, donât hesitate to ask, Iâm happy to answer! Norbert
