Travis Reeder’s Experience

• Co-Founder

  Appoxy LLC

  (Computer Software industry)

  February 2009 — Present (10 months)

  Appoxy does application development with a specialization in Cloud Computing technologies. Our focus has been on high traffic, high data volume applications that require high scalability and high performance.
  
  Appoxy gets deeply involved in the project as if we were an employee. One person on staff is focused almost entirely on the project and we only hire A class talent.
  
  We do paired programming within our team to improve productivity, improve quality and to share knowledge (at least one other person knows the ins and outs of the project and can step in to help out at any time).
  
  Some of our clients:
  
  Plaster Networks provides ethernet over powerlines - every adapter they sell sends performance and network related data into central servers - data is collected, processed and visualized through main site for both customers and internal usage - central system also sends commands to adapters to perform certain functions

  ecommStats Web Analytics the first hosted web analytics service that provided revenue tracking and ROI calculations in the reporting - receives millions of requests per day from 1000's of websites on the net - once again, data is processed and visualized for customers.

  Accurate Solar Power was formed to develop and manufacture state-of-the-art solar efficiency products for the rapidly developing solar generation industry. We are developing the distributed data collection model and customer reporting and management dashboards
  using SimpleDB, Ruby on Rails, and EC2.
