In the industry of things related to computers, the waves are relatively short; we have always suspected the time span to have something to do with the amortization period in the books of their costs\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From service bureaus to internally owned mainframes and software development, to packaged applications all the way to ERP, the&nbsp;<em>nec plus ultra<\/em>&nbsp;of packaged applications from a single supplier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since that wave was unmanageable, the wind went to handing the problem over to others. Various flavors of Outsourcing (somebody else runs the infrastructure) , ASP-Application Services Providers (somebody else supports the applications), to BPO-Business Process Outsourcing (somebody else uses the application in executing the Function), to now the current greatest: SaaS-Software as a Service, the same&nbsp;<em>you-use-it<\/em>&nbsp;as ERP, but now it is going to be easy: no up-front costs for licenses, pay-as-you-go, somebody else owns the assets, and you can start using it tomorrow around 1:00 p.m.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One major glitch resides in \u201csomebody else owns the assets\u201d, such as the minor details of security, non-integrated off-site silos, lack of flexibility in scope, tight rules on access to data you own, one-size-fits all limitations on anything (bringing humongous implementation costs to service the specific needs), captive-client situation with no real exit option (all you own is raw data, comma delimited), excessive supplier pricing power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This led to a lot of resistance and offerings where the keywords are Private Cloud, Single Tennant, Hosted Private Cloud, In-House Private Saas, etc. Complete confusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No doubt why majority of Saas instances are Private.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With DLGL\u2019s usual aim to be the best supplier for each client, not the supplier with the most clients, a perfect choice is offered:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul style=\"list-style-image: url('http:\/\/www.dlgl.com\/images\/Buzz\/Bullet_Buzz_2786a0.png');\"><li>VIP Private Saas on the Public Cloud (Azure or other), called SoC. DLGL manages everything.<\/li><li>VIP Private Saas on your own infrastructure , called PRI. DLGL manages the application for you.<\/li><li>You already own VIP on-premise (ONP), you can convert to PRI or lift and shift to SoC.<\/li><li>You made a choice and don\u2019t like it, you can revert back, perfect fluidity between ONP, SoC, PRI.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Same VIP application perfectly fitted to your needs, not to the size that fits all. Completely unique offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What will the next wave be? Why go all-in on full out multi-tenant one-size fits all Public Saas and lose all your options in the future? With a stack of unstructured comma delimited data and a pile of interfaces to a one-size-fits-all proprietary world, where do you go? How do you move? \u2026pricing power and expectations denial to be expected\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no payback for this huge risk. Assuming risks without payback is not a winning strategy.
