Rally adds Mashup Toolkit to its platform-as-a-service architecture

August 13, 2008 —  Software agility specialist Rally Software has added mashup capabilities to what it calls the first programmable Internet platform for agile life-cycle management.

The company’s platform-as-a-service (PaaS) architecture connects tools from multiple suppliers and shares Rally data with other applications and Web portals, according to Rally executives.

“These platforms are being made popular in the enterprise by Salesforce.com and Google,” said Rally founder and CTO Ryan Martens. “Rally is offering ALM customers these same advantages, but tuned to the needs of the software-driven enterprise.”

One new feature of Rally’s PaaS is the Mashup Toolkit, for creating mashups, charts and views deployed in custom Rally tabs, the company announced last week. Customers can deploy mashups into Web portals, wikis and IDEs after they are designed, according to Rally. Prebuilt mashups are available at www.agilecommons.org.

Also new is the Integration Toolkit, for creating integrations or reports. Customers can use the feature to display the details of outside objects, such as support cases or defects within Rally. The platform has a separate development and testing sandbox to test integrations and mashups prior to production, according to the company.

Rally is implementing the PaaS capabilities in all editions of its agile life-cycle management products. The tools will be generally available in Rally Release 2008.4 on Aug. 28, and will come in both the Community Edition, which is free for up to 10 users, and the Rally Enterprise Edition, the company said.
