Software-as-a-service (SaaS) and cloud technologies continue to gain traction as firms seek to lower costs, improve deployment speed, reduce upgrade headaches, and gain flexibility. Many of these technologies are easily self-provisioned, empowering business users to own the technology selection, administration, and development life cycle in some cases. This creates new opportunities but also new risks for enterprises. Additionally, the landscape of SaaS and cloud providers and related technologies and services is still maturing and continues to evolve at a fast pace. This creates challenges for firms trying to evaluate solutions and plan a long-term strategy.
