Abstract:
Twenty-five years ago, when enterprise software applications first emerged, the concept of "global business" was radically different than it is today. "Global" companies were typically a collection of independently operating regional units and the pace of business – pre-FedEx, pre-fax, and pre-Internet – was almost unthinkably slower than it is today. In the 21st century, businesses operate in a flat, worldwide arena. Success in this demanding arena requires up to date information, the ability to change overnight, and seamless orchestration of global business processes. Built to support the business requirements of a different era, the monolithic enterprise applications most Global 2000 companies still rely on simply can’t keep up.
