Introduction

As internet-enabled technologies have pervaded the enterprise and consumer landscape, enterprises have realized the need to adapt to these technologies. The emergence of digitization and the proliferation of consumer-led digital touch-points have rendered traditional enterprise legacy systems sluggish and ineffective. In a drive to optimize their costs while retaining business agility, enterprises are seeking newer mechanisms to consume and provide software to their end-users.

Consequently, consumption-based models such as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) have mushroomed in recent years. These models are not restricted to a pure interaction between enterprises and software providers, but extend into the service provider landscape for additional scope. Service providers are playing an integral part in this enterprise adoption of the cloud and are helping enterprises integrate and deploy these SaaS products. Service providers have beefed up their investments in this cloud ecosystem to help enterprises venture into the familiar, yet uncharted territory of the cloud.
