key messages

Appian's cloud offering related to BPM revolves around Amazon AWS-hosted instances of its core Appian technology platform, which are feature-equivalent to the on-premise version it sells.
First launched in 2007 as Appian Anywhere, Appian's cloud-based BPM offering is a major part of the company's business.
To date, although there are no differences in functionality between the cloud-based and on-premise offerings, customers using Appian's cloud platform have tended to deploy less complex and demanding process scenarios than those using its technology on premise.
