About Appvia The Application Containerisation market is due to reach $8.5B by 2025 delivering a CAGR of 26.5%. This is being driven by many different organisations that are turning to container based infrastructure and microservices as a way of satisfying the ever complex role of Software Development.
We are a self-funded, London based startup which provides developers and DevOps teams with a range of cloud-native enablement tools and solutions. We facilitate the reduction of infrastructure costs, development time and provide better security, stability and monitoring.
