Platform as a Service
Ran across an interesting article about Software as a Service (SaaS), explaining the tiers involved, and how the approach to SaaS (and Platform as a Service - PaaS) is progressing.
SaaS: All PaaS are not created equal.
This article is relevant to us because one of the core pieces of our business as we grow will be SaaS. Although I cannot say much about our offerings yet, I can say that we are investing a significant amount of time into our technology, including developing a new scripting language to power the applications. After years of working in enterprise scripting languages developed years ago, I felt that it was time to develop something new designed to work the way modern web applications work. My hope is that it will increase our internal efficiency by a large magnitude, but I am also hoping that it will get some other people talking about a new approach to language development - one that is not tied to a particular platform or programming language. More on those vague statements at a later time. In any case, SaaS is the future for businesses and non-profits. We want to be a part of that and so should you.
