1 CEO Needs CIO Mandates Operational Productive Governable Reliable Affordable Secure Platform as a Service Cloud Computing Today Opportunity Challenge Necessity Peter Coffee Director, Platform Research salesforce.com To Get Your Attention: an Unresolved Paradox CEO Needs Operational Governable Affordable CIO Mandates Productive Reliable Secure Has anyone here not heard of Moore s Law? Does anyone here not think that it promises continually cheaper computing? Platform as a Service If computing is always getting cheaper, why do IT budgets keep going up? 1

2 Do More with Less is not a new demand on the CIO Business demands have moved in new directions Governance Security Competitive Environment but enterprise IT offerings have followed familiar trajectories IT Had a Very Bad Year Global IT spending estimated down 5.2% during 2009 Spending won t return to 2008 level until 2012 Half of CIOs will see zero growth or further cuts this year Gartner (informationweek.com, 26 Oct.) 2

3 100% Cloud Cover? If you take the ideal world, everything is done as a service: computing, storage, software and operations. The risk for enterprises that don't start a SaaS migration strategy soon is that their IT organizational structures will be a competitive disadvantage. Geir Ramleth CIO, Bechtel Corp. 3

4 The Cloud as a Multi-Product Marketplace Servers as a Service Virtual Servers Virtual Servers Virtual Servers Platform as a Service (PaaS) for the Inquiring Developer Python/Java Application Server PaaS as Enterprise Application Framework Programmable Cloud Logic Real-Time Workflow & Approvals Programmable User Interface Integrated Content Library Database as a Service Database as a Service Unlimited Real-Time Customization Granular Security & Sharing Infrastructure as a Service Infrastructure as a Service Infrastructure as a Service ~Familiar Developer Model Rapid Scalability β Offering Innovative Technology Supports Large-Scale SaaS Deep-Dyed Multitenancy What it Means to Promise The Cloud Moving toward an ideal: Zero, One, Infinity * 0 On-premise infrastructure Acquisition cost Adoption cost Support cost 1 Coherent and resilient environment not a brittle software stack Scalability in response to changing need Integratability/Interoperability with legacy assets and other services Customizability/Programmability from data, through logic, up into the user interface without compromising robust multi-tenancy * From The Jargon File: Allow none of foo, exactly one of foo, or any number of foo 4

5 Faster Results; Lower Risks; Predictable Costs On-Premise Operations: 53% of software projects cost 189% of original estimate 1 Cloud Computing: Average 49% ROI within 10 Months 2 Value Fixed Costs and Excess Operating Expenses Value Variable Cost Aligned with Business Value Buying Function, not Infrastructure Time Up-front Capital Expense & Delay Upgrade Expense & Opportunity Costs Minimal Initial Cost 1 Standish Group, Chaos Report Third-Party CustomerSat Research on 4,165 Salesforce.com customers, February 2008 A Cloud for Every Use Case Grids are clouds of computation Grids address massively parallel problems Electrical grid analogy has limits: platforms have different strengths Virtual servers are clouds of illusion: a familiar IT model Virtualized servers can be quickly provisioned but still represent redundant complexity and risk What you had to do before, plus more Enterprise clouds are API portfolios Immediate focus on function; immediate delivery of value A multi-vendor marketplace of frameworks 5

6 Single-Tenant vs. Multi-Tenant Architecture Shared infrastructure App 1 App Server Database OS Server Storage Network App 2 App Server Database OS Server Storage Network App 3 App Server Database OS Server Storage Network Other apps Single tenancy gives each customer a dedicated software stack and each layer in each stack still requires configuration, monitoring, upgrades, security updates, patches, tuning and disaster recovery. On a multi-tenant platform, all applications run in a single logical environment: faster, more secure, more available, automatically upgraded and maintained. Any improvement appears to all customers at once. Why Multi-Tenancy Matters to Developers User Interface Logic Database Your Clicks Your Code Build strategic applications Customize any aspect Upgrade when convenient Retain IP ownership Metadata representations: Rigorously partitioned data, logic and customizations for multiple customers Coherent Code Base and Managed Infrastructure 6

18 Cloud Applications Expand to New Domains Real-World Results: Financial Services The Phoenix Companies sought a new CRM solution with flexibility, ease of use, mobile accessibility, low-cost modification capabilities, minimal user training requirements, and simplified integration with other apps. Changeover to Salesforce CRM took less than two months. Working with salesforce.com partner OKERE (now part of Fujitsu Consulting), Phoenix used the Force.com platform to create customizations for contracts and underwriting. Using the Force.com API, Phoenix integrated several legacy systems with Salesforce CRM to provide consolidated, real-time access to information. The Salesforce CRM implementation cost the company less than one-fourth of the project s original budget. By streamlining communication between field and inside sales within Salesforce CRM, Phoenix has reduced phone and inefficiencies, boosted productivity, and, in 2005, increased life insurance sales by more than 33%. Following its upgrade to Salesforce CRM Unlimited Edition, Phoenix achieved 96% user adoption. 18

19 Real-World Results: Health Care CRC Health the nation's largest provider of drug and alcohol treatment services acquired the country s largest youth treatment provider. The combined organization required a platform to manage patient intake, track Web entities, and streamline operations to increase revenue. The company used ACT!, spreadsheets, and other proprietary systems to manage extensive patient data. Only one call center operator could open the spreadsheet at a time, making the process inefficient, opaque, and unscalable. The company developed a customized user interface on Force.com for 12 users. With help from salesforce.com partner Appirio, CRC Health extended the application to broadly leverage the platform. Security levels are matched to what s required to comply with HIPAA and other industry regulations. Open APIs enable tight integration with legacy tracking systems, Microsoft Outlook, efax, and other third party apps. Web marketing effectiveness tracking within Salesforce CRM indicates to the dollar what is performing and what is not. Real-World Results: Professional Services Animators at Law, a leading provider of litigation graphics, litigation consulting & litigation technology for many of the largest law firms, pioneered a unique system for identifying the litigation activities of law firms and corporations and wanted to make the data available to third parties through a subscriptionbased service. In just a few months with no added development staff the team created LawProspector, the first comprehensive sales lead and litigation market intelligence tool. The application, built on the Force.com platform, integrates with Salesforce CRM Enterprise Edition and Salesforce CRM Partner Networks. LawProspector is integrated with applications from the Force.com AppExchange. LinkedIn for Salesforce, enables users to access LinkedIn information directly from Salesforce CRM contact and account records, and Account News Feed powered by Google News displays relevant news items from Google alongside Salesforce CRM records. 19

20 Real-World Results: Green Manufacturing Vetrazzo, a leader in the rapidly growing market of recycled glass countertops, required an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system it could customize to handle its unique manufacturing processes. The eco-friendly small business lacked the budget and personnel required to purchase and implement a traditional on-premise ERP system. Without an IT department, executives wanted to avoid having to purchase and manage hardware infrastructure. The company needed a Web-based solution for its national staff that could handle anticipated growth. With the help of salesforce.com partner The Claiborne Company, Vetrazzo expanded on a prototype to build an ERP system customized to fit its specific business processes. The company s custom apps include Customer Service and Order Management; Finished Goods Inventory Management; Production Planning and Scheduling; Raw Materials Management; Shipping and Logistics; Document Management, and Warranty Management. Planned integration with Quickbooks will tie in financials.

23 India Emergent: the Innovative Cloud My chauffeur was learning Java Small and medium businesses are already 40% of IT spending and growing at 40%/year Year-on-year growth rate of SaaS/PaaS adoption: ~80%/year through 2011 Arguably India s biggest export: process skills Tata offices in Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay Cognizant in Shanghai and Phoenix Wipro in Canada, China, Portugal, Romania, Saudi Arabia and Atlanta This Is Not the Bleeding Edge 40% of IT execs have been using cloud computing for more than three years 62% of surveyed firms plan to increase their use of SaaS this year 60% project SaaS in vertical apps within two years By 2011, more than 70% of U.S. enterprise data centers will hit the wall on power, cooling and space: More than 1 / 3 of companies expect IT investment reductions in 2009 Outsource data-center demand is up 14% in the last 12 months; capacity has grown by only 6% Data center costs have doubled in many markets; in London, they're up sixfold 37% of firms are replacing current on-premise systems with SaaS 23

25 This is the Leading Edge Nothing is perfect but some things are improving more quickly than others If the cloud can t do that today, what about next year? Can today s mature traditional models say the same? Best Practices and Pitfalls Adopting the Cloud does not mean starting over Retain what s working: innovate and add value at Web speed Don t settle for the least unsatisfactory solution: treat the Cloud as a supermarket of services Preserving familiar pain is not a measure of success Moving existing complexity into the Cloud avoids short-term pain Mastering new developer models is a high-return investment Don t apologize for doing what made sense two years ago Bandwidth has grown Customizability has grown Costs of doing things the old way are skyrocketing Don t mistake the consumer Web for the enterprise cloud Expect high availability; robust security; deep customizability Demand clear commitments on data ownership and protection 25

26 PaaS Puts IT Spending Back in Balance Conventional IT model front-loads capital spending on infrastructure Debt service and depreciation charges persist despite business contractions Future capacity must either be bought in advance, or added later at higher cost with substantial business disruption PaaS enables preparation for upturn New systems can be built and tested with negligible up-front investment Resulting systems can be rapidly scaled to respond to improving conditions "It has been our repeated experience that business uncertainty is inevitably accompanied by opportunity (Jack Welch, Letter to GE Shareholders, 1997) Safe Harbor Statement Safe harbor statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: This presentation may contain forwardlooking statements including but not limited to statements concerning the potential market for our existing service offerings and future offerings.

27 Raise Your Expectations! Marc Andreessen: A platform is a system that can be programmed and therefore customized by outside developers -- users -- and in that way, adapted to countless needs and niches that the platform s original developers could not have possibly contemplated, much less had time to accommodate. Levels 1 and 2: Access API and Plug-In API The entire burden of building and running the application itself is left entirely to the developer. If an app succeeds on a Level 2 platform, the technical and financial burdens on the developer can rapidly become overwhelming. Level 3: Runtime Environment The platform handles everything Level 3 platforms are much harder to build but what it makes possible is magical Raise Your Expectations!
