Company mission

To provide solutions that make public cloud delivery simple and secure.

31% employee growth in 12 months

Our take

The founding team behind Appvia first met whilst working with the Home Office to transform the way it delivered digital services. Drawing on their extensive experience in software engineering, they built a new system to harness the power of Kubernetes. This proved to be an immense success, with huge cost reductions across the projects it was deployed on.

Today Appvia dedicates itself to building a cloud infrastructure layer that allows engineering teams to manage, monitor, and update with ease. At the same time, it offers developers the flexibility to easily deploy apps in the cloud. Appvia states that its product reduces costs for users by 70% by speeding up development and reducing the requirement for specialist resources.

Appvia Wayfinder allows users to gain all the benefits from Kubernetes without spending the vast amounts of time that it would otherwise demand. It is easily scalable, whilst saving developers time. Furthermore, Appvia is available to give specialised, tailored advice. With enterprise customers including the Home Office, the Bank of England, and CGI, Appvia seems to have found its stride in a competitive market and is primed for future growth.
