We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

Vinay Singla, a Lead Architect at Cisco WebEx launched "Platform as a Service Journal" Launched on Ulitzer.

Vinay is currently focused on building the next-generation OSS/BSS platform for SaaS.

Platform as a service (PaaS) is a big piece of the cloud computing puzzle, the other pieces being Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and Application software as a service (SaaS). PaaS enables the delivery of solution frameworks and components as on-demand, pay-as-you-go services. Some examples of these are Google Apps Engine, Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Windows Azure platform, SalesForce Force.com platform, Cisco WebEx Connect platform. PaaS will allow developers to create SaaS applications with agility and will be critical to the success of cloud computing.
