During my responsibility at Panasonic, the Ballista platform has proven its scalability, robustness, and application speed during Panasonic Denver - DOT Smart City project by enabling us "as Panasonic" to move forward with our Proof of Concept very fast and by meeting all customer Smart City - IoT requirements. The Ballista development platform framework and application themselves were world class. Our Ballista Smart City Development project was definitely one of our very successful projects.

The team at Ballista knew everything there was to know about building the back end, and they understood what it would take to support our vision. We were fortunate to become partners in the venture and worked very hard to architect and build the One Degree engine. What we got, was as amazing outcome and we were confident our back end was equal to our front end.
