About Us

Applied Informatics was started by Günter Obiltschnig in 2004 with the goal to simplify the life of C++ software developers by providing class libraries and tools that are powerful, platform independent and fun to work with. After all, software engineering should be about managing complexity, not creating it.

The focus of Applied Informatics is on creating C++ class libraries and tools that enable the easy development of network- and internet-enabled applications and embedded systems. Software from Applied Informatics is building bridges that connect applications and embedded systems to the cloud.

History

In February 2005, Applied Informatics released the first version of the Open Source POCO C++ Libraries (back then known as the C++ Portable Components) to the public. Since then, the POCO C++ Libraries have become one of the most outstanding and important C++ toolkits available.

In 2006, Applied Informatics received a grant from the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) to fund development of its advanced C++ libraries and tools.

Worldwide Customer Base

Customers all over the world rely on the C++ class libraries, tools and services from Applied Informatics to build software for building automation systems, industry automation, automotive test and diagnostic systems, VoIP infrastructure, network analysis, ticketing systems, genome sequencers and much more.
