How To Build A Case For Your Cloud Cost Optimization Opportunity

Identifying great business optimization opportunities is tougher than it seems. You often need to weigh the projected revenue and costs of taking a new path against the potential opportunity costs of not taking that path.

SaaS differs from traditional applications in that it works from a cloud computing environment. This means that both the application service as well as user data are being hosted by a cloud provider in the cloud. Therefore, the SaaS and data are accessible from anywhere as long as there's online access. This model provides a distinct advantage from a software perspective.
