IDC believes that the transition from on-premises software delivery to cloud-based software delivery is near completion, with 88% of net-new software and application offerings currently delivered as services.
Why Choose Multi-Tenant, Cloud-Based Services?
Cloud analytic services running on platforms such as AWS — built for multi-tenancy and with a host of other critical differentiators — are superior to single-tenant cloud hosted services or on-premises deployment running old-school enterprise software. Some enterprise management software stack companies running on AWS have chosen not to build multi-tenant cloud-native services from the ground up. Instead, they have taken shortcuts in service — operationalizing their enterprise software architected over 10 years ago and deploying it on AWS as-is to avoid the burden of rewriting code. These shortcuts negatively impact performance and scalability and lack or limit some features of multi-tenant cloud-native management stacks.
