Independent Software Vendor Market Opportunity
RISING DEMAND FOR CLOUD-BASED SOLUTIONS
The introduction of cloud technologies constituted an important turning point in software development history. Cloud computing refers to the supply of various computing services such as servers, storage, databases, networking, analytics, and more that are all accessible via the internet, indicating a paradigm shift in how technology resources are accessed and utilised. This transition from on-premises infrastructure to cloud-based services resulted in several revolutionary shifts. Cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud provided scalable architecture that allowed developers to simply add resources as needed. This avoided the need for upfront hardware investments and allowed the flexibility to scale up or down dependent on demand. Cloud services can be accessed from any location with an internet connection, allowing for remote development, collaboration, and access to a worldwide talent pool. In a world where distributed teams and remote work have become the norm, geographical flexibility has become critical. Leading cloud providers have made significant investments in security and data redundancy, making cloud-based solutions safer and more dependable than many on-premises alternatives. Backups of data and disaster recovery have become more accessible and efficient. Due to all this demand for cloud-based software solutions is expected to be increasing significantly. This is presenting significant opportunity for ISVs developing and offering cloud-based solutions for various industries.
