Perspective Summary:
Cloud-based
development is suddenly a viable alternative to on-premise
development targeting traditional computing platforms.
Salesforce is one of the most visible platforms enabling
cloud-based development, along with NetSuite. And the trend is
growing to include a wide array of platform players including, for
example, Bungee Labs, Coghead, Comrange, DreamFactory, Facebook,
Iceberg on Demand, and IT Factory.
SaaS
platform capabilities have evolved through three stages:
-
Integration - ecosystem partner integration via APIs and integration of SaaS
solutions with on-premise applications,
-
Customization - customization of SaaS solution UI and logic via APIs and scripting
toolkits,
-
Development - cloud-based development of enterprise applications and SaaS solutions.
The
next stage of SaaS platform evolution will extend those same three
capabilities – integration, customization and development – to
enable and enrich SaaS workflow. |
