Salesforce App Cloud: Heroku Enterprise Overview

Engage your customers with apps built on Heroku.

Delight customers with beautiful and engaging apps. Create rich experiences that transform your customer relationships like never before. And connect it all to your employee apps.

There are few industries and few parts of our everyday life that have not been touched -- if not transformed -- by apps. Who could have imagined that the business model for the most mundane of our daily activities, from shopping to hailing a taxi, would be completely upended in a matter of months.

This has rightfully created a new urgency for organizations of all kinds and sizes -- and particularly the tech leadership within them -- to also become adept at creating these kinds of new Internet consumer experiences.

As the need for apps has increased, so have the requirements for building and running them. An Internet scale-level of sophistication and performance -- combined with enterprise requirements for trust and control -- are now necessary for these apps to truly make an impact. 

Salesforce’s mission is about empowering innovation inside of companies and Heroku is a key part of how we enable that. From day one our focus has been on delivering innovative tools so developers can put their energy into building great apps. We were born in the same era as the top consumer Internet companies and have been supporting them from the beginning through billions of requests a day.

There has since been a diffusion of technology and these amazing web experiences are also now relevant to the enterprise. With this in mind, we are democratizing the needed technologies so that every company can be a great customer app company, not just the Facebooks, Googles, and Pinterests of the world.

Heroku Enterprise 

This product represents the fusion of all of our most innovative and complex learning around trust, deployment, connecting data, identity, and collaboration.
