Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Enablement


Proteans provides end-to-end software engineering services to Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) providers, Consumer Internet and IP enabled firms. This help companies' make a smooth transition to a SaaS platform by addressing key issues like

  • Provisioning issues involve the initial infrastructure build out for new customers as well as the reuse of equipment when a customer is upgraded or lost
  • Security issues are especially significant in the SaaS model. Providers must deal not only with authentication, but also with issues of multi-tenancy. In other words, not only do providers have to keep unauthorized people from accessing the software, but they must also keep authorized users from seeing one another's data
  • Monitoring - encompasses the daily operational aspects of SaaS. Providers must be able to respond to server or service failures within an acceptable time frame
  • Support is a key category that often determines the level of customer satisfaction. A strong support plan will address software updates, patches, intrusion protection, and customer service
