Welcome to the April Cirrostratus Group Newsletter.

 

Check out the results of the 2014 Future of Open Source Survey results. Many experts are saying that the battle between open source and other software is over and open source has won. 

 

If you are thinking about extending your SaaS application to mobile platforms there are some good resources below to help you make those decisions.

 

I'm always interested in any plans you have for SaaS or the Cloud and the challenges you are running into.

2014 Future of Open Source Survey Results 
 
I had suggested in a previous newsletter that you take the 2014 Future of open Source Survey and the results are out. Open source continues the momentum in many important areas such as quality and capabilities and it's importance in implementing SaaS solutions continues. Some of the new industries where open source is making an impact is in the Internet of Things and with education.
 
The slides of the results are available as is a webinar. I would encourage you to take a look because of the importance of open source. 
Mobile SaaS Applications


I've written previously about the opportunities for SaaS providers to expand their application into mobile delivery and the importance of making the right strategic decisions. One of the hard decisions when deploying a mobile SaaS application is whether to implement a native mode, HTML 5 or hybrid solution. This article from Sandhill.com covers a lot of the issues to consider when making this decision.
