In May, 2008, top researchers from around the world people gathered
near Potsdam, Germany for the International Research Forum
sponsored by SAP Research. For two days, these thinkers from
business, academia and government examined a topic that will
increasingly become part of our vocabulary: the Internet of
Services. The discussion illuminated how the Internet of Services
will change enterprise computing. It will help businesses leverage
core strengths, find partners in new business networks, collaborate
and tap new global markets. Software as a service, cloud computing
and other trends are democratizing innovation as never before. The
infrastructure barriers to doing business in the Internet of
Services are falling away. Yet, as this book shows, this new world
also poses challenges different from anything we have seen before..
International Research Forum 2008 captures these insights and
begins to answer the questions raised at the gathering. This book
will cover: How the web based service industry is revolutionizing
how services are provided over the Internet and allowing customers
to choose from a growing menu of offerings. How the emergence of
cloud computing allows companies to outsource basic computing needs
and purchase information technology as a service and reduces
significant barriers to entry and innovation. How we can begin to
understand the mystery of what makes a "killer app" and identify
factors that increase the likelihood of successful innovation. How
semantic service discovery can help customers find the most
appropriate services in a vast ocean of potential offerings. These
trends take us to the frontiers of business technology.
International Research Forum 2008 explains how the technology,
practice and pace of business are evolving rapidly. In some cases,
this book answers questions about the future. In others, we can
only pose questions and offer partial answers because of the
difficulty of predicting the future. In either case, the reader
will come away better prepared to meet whatever challenges the
future brings.
