Run 100% of a Business in the Cloud? It’s Happening Now

April 19, 2012 No Comments

For many businesses, cloud computing means more cost savings and greater flexibility. But that’s only a piece of the story. Perhaps the most revolutionary aspect of cloud is that it is springing forth a new generation of businesses, designed on the cloud, for the cloud.

Some businesses emerging on the scene today are 100% cloud. I recently had the opportunity to speak with Rob Bernshteyn, founder and CEO of Coupa, which provides online procurement software and services to the business community. Coupa’s servers for its online services are provisioned at Amazon Web Services, while its customer relationship management is run on Salesforce.com. Email is handled by Google.
