Advantages of cloud (1)
• SaaS is good for OTS products (system of records)
– not be changed by us (i.e. customised)
– protect well their data
• BPM PaaS product is necessary for integration and
provisioning of micro-services (system of differentiation)
– without customising the platform (itself
– with the use of only non-exotic features
– core for a corporate integration and automation platform or
business execution platform
– quick deployment, versioning, scaling out (for peak load periods)
• Collaboration with a BPM PaaS product vendor to improve
our services and solutions (system of innovations)

#SaaS) v2
• Several SaaS and PaaS products may be used
simultaneously
• But, keep an eye on them – changing of SaaS or PaaS
product should be easy
• Potentially, all currently installed in-house products will be
in cloud
• Financial effect should be estimated if there is “pay-as-you-
go” option

How to move from in-house to cloud
• Step-by-step
• Total (or ruthless) digitalisation
• Different business domains may have different pace
• Keep everyone happy concerning their “touch-points”
• Especially security issues
– making the flow of data explicit to take an informed solution
• Make everything explicit
• Maintain discipline, make design simple, strive for
balance, and keep is stable
• Architecture, architecture, architecture

#SaaS) v2
Again
1. Think about micro-services (atomic and compound)
2. Know how to implement your-business-specific-common
functionality as micro-services
3. Know not to implement automation for your-unique-business-
processes-specific as composite (compound)
micro-services with the use of micro-services from the
item #2
4. Know how to implement your-unique-business-processes
as composite (compound) micro-services with the use of
the item #3
5. Use DSLs for compound micro-services
6. Use interpretive programming languages for micro-services
7. Think about integration and automation platform

Apps and services view – which initiated
• “A relevant application architecture trend is the shift away from monolithic
and tightly coupled n-tier applications to decomposed applications. A modern
application is a functional ecosystem comprising a loose association of apps
and services. Apps implement the application front end, and services
implement the application back end. Together these apps and services
support a particular business domain.”

1. Business process-specific functionality (to be
used only in a particular process)
2. Business domain-specific functionality
(common within a particular domain and to be
used by services from the item 1)
3. Cross-domain functionality (to be used by
services from the item 2)
# compound vs atomic micro-service or service OTS vs in-house
1 explicit compound micro-service in-house
2 explicit compound or atomic any any
3 implicit compound or atomic any OTS
