One of the key
advantages of modern cloud systems is that they often come with rapid
development platforms that allow the vendor, partners, and even customers to
build extensions and customizations to the system without affecting the
underlying code or architecture of the base system. These are generally known
as Platform as a Service (PaaS).
Examples include the Salesforce Lightning
(formerly Force.com) platform, the SuiteCloud platform of Oracle’s NetSuite,
Acumatica’s xRP platform, Sage Intacct’s Platform Services, Microsoft’s Power
Platform, and many others.
However, as with so many good things in life, PaaS can be
used and abused.
