Can the technology of SaaS and cloud computing be achieved altogether?

Xinhua Beijing, December 18, do not know when the marriage is not specifically knot, also means through cooperation, to achieve the goal of mutual win. And the technology of the marriage, can both win?　　Through the combination of SaaS and cloud computing, look at the technology marriage, the odds of geometry. Subversion tradition in the field of management software, the rise of SaaS, has a great impact on traditional software, although SaaS is not perfect, but with the combination of cloud computing, it shows unstoppable momentum.　　The banner of the "Traditional management software Terminator", which is the first to be played by 800 of customers, also seems to be a sign of the traditional software's status being shaken. With the change of consumption and service mode, the traditional software market is developing more and more tired, the demand has started to shrink, and the demand of Internet software consumption is beginning to flourish. In particular, SaaS and cloud computing combine to completely subvert the pattern of traditional software.　　Cloud computing can be a good complement to SaaS: SaaS emphasizes the final application, and cloud computing focuses on leveraging the underlying architecture and resources to help SaaS providers solve resource-poor problems such as hardware or bandwidth, and to reduce costs. Influenced by the trend of technology development, some software managers are also planning for development. Like rising anti-virus software, has tried the water Internet service mode.　　When users try and apply the new service mode, they accept the new working mode and method, which can simplify the user's complicated business processing, improve the working efficiency and reduce the operating cost. Today, the SaaS model is impacting traditional software. The SaaS model has a feature of platform and modularity. In other words, the common functions of enterprises are designed into a module, implemented on the same platform. Enterprises only need to according to their own taste, financial strength to order. If food is not enough at last, it can still be mended.　　Because the function of the subsequent complement is on the same platform as the previous function, so it is very simple to realize the integration and work together between different functions and modules.　　Odds geometry? It is undeniable that the alliance between SaaS and Cloud computing is a selling point. But what are the odds of a SaaS vendor leveraging cloud computing?　　Through the data, you can see the cooperation between the two sides more tacit understanding, the situation of a win. It is reported that the number of users is increasing after the SaaS vendors apply cloud computing. To create the SaaS service model saleforce.com, cloud computing business has 55 400 enterprise users worldwide, and the news "saleforce.com from the Cloud", it also shows that Saleforce.com's success, and the application of cloud has a lot to do.　　At home, China's first SaaS manufacturer, which also uses the cloud computing architecture, has reached 6,000 subscribers in 2009. Of course, the alliance between SaaS and Cloud computing is based on complementarity, meaning that SaaS differs from cloud computing. From a service type perspective, SaaS provides users with software services, while the cloudComputing is more likely to lease network resources. In terms of user size, SaaS is currently focused on small and medium sized users, while cloud computing is dominated by large users. From the manufacturers themselves, currently involved in cloud computing, such as IBM, Microsoft, Yahoo, Amazon, Sun, EMC and other manufacturers, generally have a considerable size, and have their own data centers, and SaaS vendors to enter the threshold is relatively low.　　According to the survey, most SaaS vendors do not have dedicated data centers, even if they are too small to call "a cloud," which also leads to questions about the security of SaaS, which is often thought to be less secure than cloud computing. To have the ability to provide cloud computing services, in addition to the "hard quality" of the improvement, in the "soft quality" on the increase. "A lot of SaaS providers are advocating that they do ' cloud computing ', but you need to see exactly where they want to go, because it takes a lot of technology investment to get in the direction of ' cloud computing '," said Peter Saleforce.com, head of the business. If they offer only a standardized service and are not very expensive, they should also be a traditional SaaS provider, but if they want to upgrade to a highly customizable service, they need more investment and technology development, and in a sense they are moving toward a service that is "cloud computing." ”
