How Catalyst works

Create an App ID

Create an application identity representing your app in Catalyst. An App ID gives you an API endpoint that handles only your app's traffic, along with access policies, authentication, resiliency and much more

Graphic How it Works
Connect to your backing
services

An App ID can securely connect
to databases, message brokers and other infrastructure you have that is running on any cloud or on-premises datacenter

Graphic How it Works
Call the APIs

Using any programming language, invoke Catalyst APIs via gRPC or REST and enjoy powerful features like auditing, retries, circuit breakers, OIDC auth,
zero-touch telemetry, multi-tenancy and dozens more

Making the best way the easiest

Developers often don’t know how to code for security, reliability or scale and even if they do, don’t do it consistently across teams.  Catalyst bakes-in security and reliability into the golden path, making the right way to build & operate distributed enterprise applications.

The thrill of speed

Catalyst leverages proven Dapr APIs, encapsulating best practices and abstracting infrastructure details, allowing developers to concentrate solely on business logic. This increases developer productivity and reduces time to market.

Works with what you already have

Organizations can easily be constrained or locked in by their initial technology choice - e.g. running on Kubernetes, cloud vendor, service vendor. Catalyst provides flexibility to combine the widest range of developer tools, languages, compute, clouds and cloud services to suit your needs and existing IT.
