MS Architect Forum 2007

Last Week I was helping an MS friend, Jose Mauricio Alvarez (from DPE Andean region) with a very interesting talk about S+S --> Software + Services. This is just a specialization of the SaaS concept, extended to include client software which consumes services exposed as SaaS. Personally, I think that this is one of the most important focus shifting that has to (and in fact, currently is) happen(ing) in terms of the way your software reaches the customers, there are many advantages around it, and also many architectural challenges, specially optimizing the Multi-tenant support. The most attractive thing around it, is definitively the "Long Tail" which mean to capture all the customers that could not afford the cost of licensing and deploying the software locally.  Think about it.Cheers, Ricardo Gonzalez VargasSenior Software Development ConsultantMicrosoft Regional DirectorMicrosoft Most Valuable Professionalhttp://www.synergytpc.comhttp://www.devsynergy.netBLOG: http://www.msmvps.com/rgonzalezrgonzalez@mvps.org
