With Fujitsu's Latest Move, GetApp's Cloud Business App Platform Just Got Interesting

This week Japanese tech giant Fujitsu acquired an obscure French company called RunMyProcess for an undisclosed amount. This "integration Platform as a Service" (iPaaS) company offered a platform to allow businesses to build and deploy business workflow apps in the cloud using simple drag and drop functionality. It sounds mundane enough, but the acquisition looks like being yet another pointer to a future where business applications are integrated in the Cloud, in much the same way systems integrators using creaky old servers would do the same with software. But one small startup, GetApp, is quietly building both a vast archive of these cloud-based business applications and the means to make them work together in a simple enough way that means that millions of small businesses can access business apps previously only available to large enterprises.
