1. What is aPaaS
Presumably everyone is familiar with the IaaS & PaaS & SaaS of the cloud service model. There are also many articles on the site for introduction. Since it is not the focus of this article, if you need to read it, please refer to the articles on the site: Click here. But have you ever heard of aPaaS, this article will take you to learn about aPaaS related knowledge, as well as Huawei Cloud's introduction and practical cases for aPaaS services.
1.1 Introduction to aPaaS
aPaaS stands for Application Platform as a Service. It is a cloud computing model that provides developers with the infrastructure and tools needed to develop, test, deploy, and manage applications.
Through aPaaS, developers can use the tools and technologies required to build applications provided on the cloud platform without having to manage infrastructure such as servers, networks, and databases themselves. This greatly simplifies the application development and deployment process, reduces the technical and infrastructure details that the development team needs to deal with, and allows them to focus more on business logic and specific functions of the application.
The aPaaS platform usually provides a development environment, including code libraries, development tools, testing environments, automatic deployment, version control and other functions, which can be easily used through the web interface. This enables developers to build and deliver high-quality applications faster, while also enabling enterprises to manage their applications more efficiently.
PaaS is a higher-level service built on the basis of IaaS, which provides higher-level application development and deployment functions, such as development framework, database integration, API management, etc. Therefore, PaaS can be considered as a layer on top of IaaS. During the development of PaaS, aPaaS emerged as the user's demand for higher-level services increased. aPaaS further provides a fully managed application platform on the basis of PaaS, which further simplifies the process of application development and deployment. Therefore, aPaaS can be seen as a higher-level form of PaaS.
Note: aPaaS is a higher level of PaaS that provides a fully managed application platform, including hardware, operating system, database, and other application components. aPaaS aims to simplify the process of application development and deployment, so users do not need to pay attention to the underlying infrastructure and operating system .
2. HUAWEI CLOUD Kaitian aPaaS
The digital wave is rushing forward. Thousands of industries have started the process of digitalization. Only by identifying the commonality of the industry and providing one-stop solutions for customers in different industries can the threshold of digital transformation of enterprises be substantially lowered.

3. The advantages of HUAWEI CLOUD Kaitian aPaaS and the industry pain points it solves
3.1 Challenges faced by developers
In the development process of the traditional software industry, developers often face many challenges. These challenges can be summed up in the following aspects:
- The business department wants to launch the application quickly.
As a developer, it involves new page development and connection with other system data. According to the current development method, the development workload is heavy and it is difficult to meet the demand. - System joint debugging needs to understand the definitions of the system interfaces on both sides. They are often very different, and it takes time. The
interface definitions are different. The same meaning is expressed in different fields. - The threshold for secondary development based on the platform is high
. After the platform is launched, it needs to be optimized according to the business side. No matter how big or small it is, it is necessary to find a manufacturer, which is laborious and laborious.
3.2 How to build open and inclusive business capabilities
How to deal with the various challenges faced by the above-mentioned developers is a challenge faced by many enterprises and enterprise developers. In response to such challenges and pain points, here are the general solutions in the industry and the aPaaS solution using HUAWEI CLOUD Kaitian
3.3.1 Traditional assembled platform (general solution in the industry)
The assembled platform is a product development and production platform based on modular design ideas, and its development process can be divided into the following stages:
- The stage of building a business ecosystem (from the early 1990s to 2019): The focus of the assembled platform at this stage is to build the business ecosystem of the enterprise, including the ERP system. These systems can help companies manage their business processes, resource allocation, and finance, improving efficiency and management.
- The capability stage of integration and precipitation (2019 to 2020): This stage is mainly represented by the assembleable enterprise business capability (PBC) and the assembleable enterprise business capability (EBC). Assembled PBC and EBC are designed and manufactured based on standardized interfaces of enterprise business capabilities, so that they can be freely combined like building blocks to form different forms of enterprise business products. At this stage, PBC is the latest particle of EBC that can be assembled. The assembled platform at this stage is mainly optimized for the assembly and production process of enterprise business products.
- Agile support transformation stage (2020 to 2021): At this stage, PBC has become the smallest unit of software development capability, which can support enterprises to carry out digital transformation and business innovation more agilely. The assembled platform at this stage places more emphasis on supporting the agility and innovation of the enterprise, enabling the enterprise to better adapt to market changes and continue to develop.
Generally speaking, assembled platforms have been developed in different fields and at different stages, but they all center on the idea of modularization and combination, aiming at improving efficiency, reducing costs and accelerating innovation.
PBC can be a digital twin of an object or a small function. After the object or function is modularized, business users can download the PBC according to their own needs, and assemble the PBC into the application on a suitable combination platform. , such as building customized applications in a low-code manner. Through the assembleable business PBC, the enterprise's self-willedness, risk resistance and ecological ability of cross-border integration can be improved.
3.3.2 A new generation of enterprise digital capability platform (HUAWEI CLOUD Kaitian aPaaS solution)
So how do we implement Huawei Cloud Kaitian aPaaS? Kaitian aPaaS integration workbench is an assembled enterprise-level aPaaS application platform. Developers can convert APIs into connectors through two core functions, metadata models and configurable integration frameworks, so that they can be used in flow templates, and cards can be built after defining data models, and finally through cards to quickly Build light application pages.
