Why Do We Need Platform-as-a-Service?

As noted in an earlier blog post below, we were at the Office 2.0 Conference, where LongJump CEO, Pankaj Malviya, participated in a panel discussion along with representatives from Salesforce and Zoho.

The panel discussed how PaaS addresses the Long Tail of IT applications where vendors like Oracle, SAP are not focusing. IT, despite being resource constrained, can still provide the business with these apps using PaaS and still have enterprise levels of integration across their other applications and databases. Additionally, the panel also talked about their respective approaches to convincing developers on using their platforms either via leveraging Java and established database design skills or more proprietary languages like APEX (Force.com) that is similar to Java and C#.
