Catalyst by Zoho

Automated Scaling

Catalyst offers intensive scaling when the number of requests increases. This happens automatically, so you don’t have to worry about the server capacity for the spike in requests.

Zero Server Management

You can focus on building great applications for various business logic while we run the servers for you, take care of server configuration, credentials management, and provisioning, and handle decommissioning of old servers.

Pay as you use

Serverless Functions are similar to using data . You only pay for the compute time. Unlike traditional IaaS and PaaS, there is no need to pay month-to-month for the entire service. This is an extremely cost-effective model for those looking to build and scale new applications or microservices with minimum effort and budget.

Detailed Evaluation Reports

Using the Automated ML feature on Zoho Catalyst, you can obtain a detailed evaluation report of the trained model. The evaluation reports provided by AutoML contains insightful and actionable information, that is different for each model variant based on relevance.

Robust and predictive data models

Using the AutoML in Catalyst, you can build machine learning models with that are easy to deploy within the application. The data can be customized in order to train them according to your goals. This is scalable, robust, and high performing.

Abstract Data Models

The AutoML feature in Catalyst is of great advantage for the non-experts in ML. This means that you need not be a Machine learning expert in order to implement an ML algorithm in a serverless application. You can rely on the platform to train and implement algorithms which are abstracted so that you can focus on the core performance of the application.

Simplified User Experience

The workflow design of a Catalyst Circuits contains various components that can help you orchestrate the logic and data flow in your application or microservice.You can reorganize or swap states, rearrange the steps, provide different inputs, and perform tests for different conditions to achieve desired outcomes.

Seamless Flow

Circuits offers seamless experience of execution of functions by automating application logic in sequential workflows. You can orchestrate and execute applications in your preferred order. Individual components of the application logic can be combined and multiple tasks in Catalyst can be managed simultaneously.

Less code. More convenience

Repetitive tasks involved in retries, sequential tasks, parallel tasks, and timeouts can be offloaded using Catalyst Circuits. A great deal of time and effort can be saved by assigning repeatable actions in Circuits and automated, according to the application logic.

Simplified DB Administration

You can build and run applications on Catalyst without having to provision and manage Database servers, separately. Once you start using Data Store on Catalyst, we’ll take care of the entire database administration while you focus on creating powerful serverless applications.

Simplified Access Control

Perform multiple levels of access control based on the defined scope, which includes operations such as user based, organization based, and global mode. Once you assign access control for a specific requirement, Catalyst will take care of applying the scope and filter data accordingly.

Bulk Operations

You can fetch and upload any amount of bulk data to Data Store. Easily perform data analytics with any analytical platform using large volumes of data.

Easy Querying

The Zoho Catalyst Query Langauge (ZCQL) enables complete control over data processing and handles specific requirements. This will enable you to query requests on Catalyst. You can create any number of tables and manage them in the console using the Relational Data Store.

Integrated Storage System

Catalyst empowers its users with an Integrated File Management feature to mitigate the complexities in storage of image, video, PDFs, and other non-text files to deliver the real benefits of serverless computing.

Ease of use

File Store lets users organize and store files in a single, unified repository. You can perform various functionalities, from creation to deletion of folders, and also gain insight into granular storage metrics such as space utilization, size of folder, and number of files in each folder.

Simplified Administration

You can build applications on Catalyst without provisioning a server from your end. Once you start using File Store on Catalyst, we’ll take care of the complete backend operations while you focus on creating powerful serverless applications.

Access Control - Simplified

You can perform multiple levels of access control, such as user-based, organization-based, and Global mode. This will save you the time and effort involved in custom controls.

Autoscale

Enjoy automated scaling of the cache based on the fluctuating requirements of your application. This improves the reliability of the application enormously.

Zero Server Management

You can implement the Catalyst Cache in your serverless application without worrying about the server architecture and management. You need not do a manual partition of servers for setting up the cache.

Fail-safe

Take advantage of Catalyst's automatic failure handling, which will save time from constant monitoring and manual recovery tasks.

Advanced Security

The highly-secure API Gateway with advanced security rules offers additional authentication features, such as OAuth and API key. The Gateway handles all client requests securely while preventing certain components from being directly exposed to clients.

Custom API End points

Create customized API end points using Catalyst API Gateway. The API Gateway can help to create significant API end points that are simple, customizable and easy to use.

Throttling

Enable IP based and time based throttling in your apps and microservices with Catalyst API Gateway. Set limitations and permissions to verify API requests. This will help to keep a check on unexpected app crashes, and allow only verified requests.

Simple Integration

You don't have to write lengthy codes to authenticate users. Instead, you can integrate the built-in authentication feature to enable your preferred authentication type.

Authentication options

Catalyst provides you with a variety of User Authentication options. You can have authorized domains for cross-origin-resource-sharing and embedding your application in other web pages.

Enable Google Users

Using Catalyst User Authentication, you can permit Google users and Zoho users to sign-in with their accounts.

Secure hosting

Take advantage of the most secure SSL-certified hosting environment for your applications.

Minimal latency

Serve content at the speed of your business. Catalyst ensures minimal latency, focusing on the swift and secure delivery of content anywhere across the globe.

Heterogeneous hosting

Structure your applications using any type of coding language from HTML to CSS, any framework or JavaScript library in Catalyst.

Change in a click

You can deploy an updated version of your application or roll back to the older version in a single click on Catalyst hosting.

Auto scaling

Enjoy consistent app performance irrespective of the fluctuations in load through Catalyst's automated scaling.
