Diagrid’s Catalyst simplifies the complexities of building distributed microservices applications

Diagrid is a company focussed on app developers building modern, distributed microservices applications. They recently announced the beta release of Catalyst, a new offering designed to simplify the complexities of building distributed microservices applications.

Catalyst is based on the open source Dapr (Distributed Application Runtime) project and provides APIs for service discovery, invocation, and workflow coordination, hosted as a service.

It allows developers to build applications on various platforms, including Kubernetes, serverless, and container-based environments.

Catalyst reduces the total cost of building microservices, abstracts infrastructure complexities, and simplifies development workflows. Mark Fussell, CEO and Co-Founder of Diagrid, says, “Catalyst lowers the total cost of building microservices solutions yet with the flexibility of choice, of changing infrastructure services and enabling faster time to market, all based on the Dapr project.”
