Software mega-vendors dominate, but disruption is hitting this “mature” industry. The way software is developed, sold, referenced, provisioned and implemented is radically changing as a result of SaaS and Cloud, open-source, mashups, and more. This session examines the chaotic impact; forecasts evolving responses of software mega-vendors, advises enterprises on immediate implications, and provides guidance for longer-term strategic options.
