1. High-Performance Microsoft Azure Platform Enables SaaS Service for Software Providers
Partner Logo
“Using our software containers, we help software providers building their SaaS services and enhancing their traditional software offering with an additional on-demand service for the Azure high-performance cloud.” – Wolfgang Gentzsch, Co-Founder and President, UberCloud
SITUATION
Engineers and scientists often need more computing power for running complex simulations in shorter time with higher accuracy. Buying a larger and more powerful high-performance computer might not be an option because of the high cost of ownership for such systems. They would rather use on-demand cloud services. However, many software providers are not yet offering their software in the cloud, with an on-demand or subscription model.
