SaaS - What problems are we trying to solve?
1 Creating an environment suitable for sharing – inline with greater organisation co-operation and data distribution – for example INSPIRE
2 Removal of multiple platform support and distribution costs/installations – Lets spend more time building features to solve problems
3 More agile and responsive software – feature request to all end users in a minimal amount of time
4 Consuming services direct from source – for example, data servers
5 Use the power of cloud computing to meet your changing demands
6 PBBI is leading the way with GIS as a SaaS offering, working with private organisations and governments to help them define and create cloud infrastructures
Investment for today and for the future
On - Premise SaaS
High up front purchase cost Low entry cost
Lower software maintenance cost –additional server and infrastructure cost
Lower total cost of ownership
Accepted model for deployment by mainstream IT today in GIS
Early adopter phase for industries such as GIS (approaching mainstream for other parts of IT sector). Perceived model for tomorrow
Security and back up in your own Security and backup provided by Vendor
Full Customer Ownership – software upgrade to your schedule
Software upgrades done (lower cost) but less customer control
