Attractive SaaS question

Hello All,

When I was googling for saas related articles, this question attracted me. "What happens to my data if my SaaS service provider/remote hosting service/other outsourced service fails as a business and is forced to close?". I will post the answer in my next post. Meanwhile, if you know the answer for this question, please add a comment in my post.

Thanks,
Varun

Usain Bolt










Usain Bolt - The man you could ever imagine. Rediff has pointed correctly as "Mind blowing bolt". He has achieved the newer mile stone by beating his own record 9.74 to 9.58. It is now a world record for the 100m race and he has finished with his own style. Now the media has started comparing Bolt and Jesse Owens and not only for the record but also the character, temperament and the style. The response from this dynamic personality for the new world record " I was thinking 9.40 but happy for 9.58". That means his journey is not over as yet. So wish him for the next world record. BTW, Dravid is back.


Thanks,
Varun

Sridhar Vembu - The new charisma in the software world


Hello All,


It is a healthy morning today despite Swine flu fears. I have seen a banner rather a poster behind a car saying "Zoho - your online office". A name has certainly changed the name of the company, focus and new energy to the total software industry. This company with the former name "Adventnet" has renamed themselves as "Zoho" and you have to really appreciate their Branding and promotional activities. They are competing with Google docs and infact they have won a big deal with GE. Zoho CRM, word, excel - what else and what not. It is very easy to get your login ID password with the help of your yahoo and gmail ID. It is not Sridhar's entire work and he hasn' t believed this concept will work for "Adventnet" (Referred from his blog: http://blogs.adventnet.com/svembu/). Folks, He has the right to slam Microsoft and he has done it in a beautiful way. (Again refer his blog). It is the new beginning and they have done decently well to cope up with Micrsoft and Google's standards. For more visit www.zoho.com.
