The emergence of SOA and SaaS technologies has created a new breed of ISV on the IT landscape.\u00a0 ISVs that can create composite applications consisting of aggregated services.\u00a0 ISVs that can publish niche services and utilities for consumption by others.\u00a0 ISVs that can easily interact globally with their customers.<\/p>\n

Software delivery platforms are proliferating and the competition among the alternatives is intensifying.\u00a0 Some of the platform options include Salesforce.com, NetSuite, Apprenda, and Jamcracker.\u00a0 These “platforms” provide well-tested and highly scalable infrastructures for software providers to build on.\u00a0\u00a0 Application hosting and tough-to-implement features like multi-tenanted access and single sign on have already been solved and come as part of the platform provider package.<\/p>\n

The platforms also offer frameworks for rapid UI development and interfacing with the back-end database.\u00a0 The result is that the cost of development for ISVs is significantly reduced and\u00a0they are freed up to\u00a0focus fully on building the business logic for great applications.\u00a0\u00a0 Combine this with readily available Open Source components and we have all the elements for a new generation of application development that is poised to grow explosively.\u00a0<\/p>\n

These next-generation ISVs will produce more software, at lower cost, and target many more highly-focused niche markets.<\/p>\n
