Part 3: Measurement One of the great breakthroughs of SaaS as a business strategy is in how it puts users and subscribers front and center of softwaredevelopment and keeps them there. Until your better-and-faster solution reaches those customers in production, that great idea that’s somewhere in the softwaredevelopment?
I started just with regular softwaredevelopment, doing software of different kinds. So, we were doing something like 70 million downloads a day or something like that. David: Maybe you can talk about that transition, coming from a business like AWS to financial services, which I think was new for you.
SaaS companies deliver software applications over the internet on a subscription basis, simplifying access and management for users. While they operate under different business models, ISVs and SaaS share similarities in softwaredevelopment, cross-platform accessibility, and industry reach.
Also, contrary to some schools of thought, your chosen cloud provider puts that responsibility on you and therefore your softwaredevelopment process needs to properly equipped to find and fix security issues proactively, rather than reactively. Do outsourced development teams also need such a comprehensive approach?
The most secure web applications use best practice security features throughout the softwaredevelopment lifecycle. A cloud server, like an AWS EC2 instance, is still a server. The only difference is that it is sitting in AWS' datacentres, rather than in your office. Not really.
Key examples are Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, which provide scalable resources like virtual servers and storage. The Software as a Service (SaaS) business model is renowned for its efficiency and flexibility, offering numerous advantages for businesses of all sizes.
All popular cloud services that you probably use, think Dropbox, Slack, AWS, Gmail, etc, have such pages that spell out their security practices. Download our Cheat Sheet For Building Unhackable Apps to understand the minimum security controls that SaaS applications must have. Look them up.
Amazon also offers you the option to access the API using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or the AWSSoftwareDevelopment Kit (SDK). Mailchimp is available as an application that can be downloaded on both Android and iOS devices, and Amazon lacks this feature.
So, you can prevent that file from being downloaded or for being shared or from being edited on a different computer. Is AWS in the lead? Are you building software differently than you have for the last 15 years? Aaron Levie: I would say that not our softwaredevelopment process, but just the product roadmap.
