Anaplan Technology

The Anaplan Platform brings breakthrough development and innovation together on a single technology in the cloud. It was developed to enable high performance analytics, modeling, forecasting, planning, and reporting in an enormously powerful online architecture that’s capable of scaling to meet the needs of the world’s biggest organizations. The result is a platform that performs at an order of magnitude faster than traditional on-premise and 1st generation SaaS systems.

The Living Blueprint

The “Living Blueprint” is the brain behind Anaplan’s powerful in-memory platform – the single place where all the intelligence underpinning a model is created and maintained. With the Living Blueprint, building and changing models is no longer an endless series of disjointed projects; it’s a dynamic, on-going process designed to grow and adapt with a constantly changing business.

The In-Memory Advantage

By building in-memory innovation into the bones of the architecture, Anaplan have eliminated the problems of traditional disc-based databases and created the blazing calc speeds necessary for in-the-moment online modeling.

HyperBlock

At the core of the Anaplan platform is our patent-pending HyperBlock Architecture, which unites a blazing fast in-memory datastore and calculation engine in a Java 6.0 environment.

Java 6.0

Anaplan is built in the cloud on Java 6.0 Architecture. Java was chosen for its power, versatility, and the fact that applications built with Java work on virtually any web browser and operating system.

Architecture

Anaplan's multi-tenant architecture works by virtually partitioning data and configurations so that each client is working with their own customized "virtual" instance of the software.;

Model Management & Data Auditing

The Anaplan File System keeps a complete record of everything that has gone into the model, providing total auditability for the development process.
