For nearly 35 years, PAC has analyzed the software & IT services industry, witnessing key structural changes to this market as a result of technological shifts, such as mainframe, client/server, and, more recently, virtualization, cloud computing and SaaS. During previous transitions, the “next” technology or architecture never completely replaced the past, but rather seized the majority of new IT investments over time and augmented the way various components of IT – software, hardware and IT services – came together.
 
During this webinar, PAC gives its view on the state of the software industry today, how it will be impacted by the cloud, SaaS and other new technologies, as well as how related segments, such as IT services and infrastructure, may be affected by this shift in IT investments and strategies. The webinar also provides a unique view on the impact on software vendors, the value it brings, but also the headwinds they will face.
