Cloud Development
How do I transform my unique business processes with the cloud?
Until recently, enterprises looking to automate a custom business process had to invest in an entire infrastructure and middleware stack, and then build a custom application that would require continuous maintenance. This model of software development was expensive, difficult to support, and had the effect of making most strategic processes slow and brittle.
Cloud platforms such as salesforce.com's Force.com, Google App Engine, and Amazon Web Services make it easy to build custom applications that are as scalable, flexible, and agile as the best software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. How will you approach software development differently so that you can take advantage of the speed, agility, and extensibility of cloud platforms?
