Developers, Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and Service Providers

Do you have expertise or experience in a particular business area? Would you like to make money and join the Cloud Computing revolution? Cloud Harbor wants to help you turn your business experience and expertise into a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application that can be subscribed to and used by thousands of people and organizations worldwide.

Service Providers

The Cloud Harbor Business Operations Platform provides a whole new professional services model for Cloud services. For the first time individuals and organizations can can market, bid, contract and deliver their services from a single Cloud-based marketplace. No matter if you are an individual in the USA, a PS company in India or Europe, or a virtual consortium in Asia or Latin America you can offer and deliver your services from anywhere. The entire operating ecosystem and marketplace are all in the Cloud - accessible from anywhere you have an internet connection and a browser.

Developers

It is easy to learn how to create Cloud Applications for the Cloud Harbor Business Application Platform. Most applications require only a working knowledge of XML, some general web services concepts, a little javascript for forms (helpful but not required) and platform training. Non-programming business people can often create most or all of a simple application by themselves. Cloud Harbor provides classroom training and self-directed, on-line training is also available.

Software Vendors

If you already have an application you are delivering to your customers and you want to be able to provide that functionality from the Cloud, or you want a web application that connects to or augments your on-premise application the Cloud Harbor Business Operations Platform can cut traditional your development time by a huge percentage. We provide one-click creation of RDBMS table interfaces including CRUD interface forms and for more sophisticated deployments we provide full Master Data Management (MDM) sub-system support. The platform is entirely SOA and the APIs are all web services.

Consulting Firms

Many consulting organizations specialize in specific application areas and/or vertical markets. They often have rich domain knowledge about particular business segments and practices. Using the Cloud Harbor Business Platform a consulting group can create process application framework templates to be used as "best practices" starting points for delivering custom applications to their clients. If the consulting organization wants to monetize their domain expertise even further they can offer generic applications for subscription in the Cloud Harbor Marketplace. Then, in addition to subscription revenues they may also find their clients wanting the generic templates altered to conform specifically to the way their organization does business. With the Cloud Harbor Business Operations Platform new revenue opportunities abound.

Other Services

Do you specialize in other service areas such as training, documentation services, SaaS marketing or tool building? The Cloud Harbor Marketplace is a great site for you to offer your services to a global Cloud community with an application ecosystem focus. List your competencies, market your rates and availability, manage your contracts and client reporting all through the Cloud Harbor infrastructure.
