SaaS providers built success on their ability to deliver quality software and service reliability as cost-effectively as possible, to maintain competitive pricing and profitability. That is why SaaS providers typically take the popular option of hosting their services on public clouds. But SaaS providers may be overlooking a number of benefits that they could gain from choosing private cloud hosting.

Cloud computing has revolutionized the way we use technology, making it easier and more affordable than ever to access powerful software and infrastructure. However, with multiple cloud computing models available, it can be difficult to understand which model is best suited for your organization’s unique needs. Three popular cloud computing models that we will explore in this article are: SaaS, IaaS and PaaS.

Cloud infrastructure is a critical component for SaaS platform providers and, in many cases, the business’ highest operational cost. This article goes into some of the top concerns that SaaS platform providers have about their cloud infrastructure and how an open source IaaS platform like OpenMetal Cloud can help resolve some of these pain points.
