Backup and recovery software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications provider Backupify has released a new set of open APIs through the Backupify Developer Platform — a move designed to extend the company’s backup technology to SaaS application providers.

The release includes enhanced API description language that allows partners to start running backups quickly, without having to customize code, the company said.

The company is working with a group of partners already who are looking to protect customer data with the Backupify platform, according to CEO Rob May.

“We’ve dedicated serious resources to ensure that our platform meets the needs of SaaS providers both big and small and across various industries. We’re excited to continue growing our partner network and bringing Backupify’s technology to more SaaS applications,” he said in a prepared statement.

Those interested in participating in the Backup Developer Platform can take a trip to the company’s website for further information.

Backupify recently provided insight into why an small and medium-sized business (SMB) would need a backup solution, an archive solution or both.
