## Notes

WaveMaker is a low-code platform for building web and hybrid mobile applications. Pages are assembled visually from widgets in the Studio, and the web front end is a single-page application that calls REST services on the back end. It is offered as WaveMaker Online, a cloud service with nothing to install, and as WaveMaker Enterprise, an on-premise product installed on virtual machines or cloud instances.

Apps are deployed as WAR files to a Java web server. On the Enterprise installation, each platform service runs in a separate Docker container.

## Worth knowing

The Enterprise edition is the only one that can be hosted on a company's own infrastructure, and its installation guide asks for machines dedicated to the platform, with no other process running on them. The number of users it can add is set by the terms of a license key that WaveMaker issues. Platform-level localization, Git Enterprise integration and single sign-on for platform logins are described as Enterprise features.
