    16. Beyond SaaS The key to delivering value today and in the future lies in combining the best aspects of software running on PCs, servers, and devices with the best aspects of services running on the Web an approach we call software plus services. Steve Ballmer CEO, Microsoft

    17. What differentiates S+S from SaaS is that SaaS is almost exclusively web-based app but S+S integrates desktop apps like Project Pro as well as server software including add-ons such as timesheet management, and other devices Key attributes of the S+S world -5 capabilities Experience (next slide) End user experience historically it was about a single device (the PC) now you have a whole array of items in your life. Consistent, seamless experience across those devices is now more important than ever. Delivery Customers will have a choice of how they get their software either delivered as software in a box, hosted by a partner, or delivered as a service over the Web Federation The world is a mesh, not hub and spoke or hierarchy, a world where you dont own and operate all the pieces like the Internet itself.

This is composition. Mash-ups are the precursor, but this will go further with model-driven development. Business models Variety of new economic models in this world transactions, subscriptions, ads, microtransactions (points), and others What differentiates S+S from SaaS is that SaaS is almost exclusively web-based app but S+S integrates desktop apps like Project Pro as well as server software including add-ons such as timesheet management, and other devices Key attributes of the S+S world -5 capabilities Experience (next slide) End user experience historically it was about a single device (the PC) now you have a whole array of items in your life.
