As end-user organizations migrate from on-premise software to Software as a Service (SaaS), ISVs and SaaS providers are increasingly being asked to develop and, in some cases, deploy SaaS applications. In addition to effectively automating front and back-office business processes, data accessibility and security must remain at the forefront of importance.

FRAMEWORK
A three-tiered approach to the delivery platform's architecture, or framework, makes software development more efficient and shortens time-to-market. Generally, specific enhancements to an application are performed in conjunction with improvements to the delivery platform.

Part of the overall product life cycle plan, this development effort is possible because the user interface (UI) layer is loosely coupled with the business logic layer, which, in turn, is loosely coupled with the database layer. Both short and long-term, this concept is fundamental in selecting the best delivery platform.

COMPLETE SOLUTION
The delivery platform's framework is the underlying code that provides the ability to easily store, process, and retrieve data within virtually any SaaS deployment.

This core functionality represents 70% of the business logic, consistent within any software application. The ISVs or SaaS provider's trade experience, proprietary data, business logic, and application specific workflow make up remaining 30%. Combining these two portions creates the unique SaaS delivery platform to offer a complete SaaS solution.
