Creating and selling computer software: whether for on premise, hybrid cloud, or cloud; whether created for commercial enterprises, not for profit, or for retail customers;  whether designed to run on a computer, a mobile device, a server, or cloud provisioned virtual hardware.

Computer software categories include:

- bespoke software designed for your needs: be it an app for your new start-up, a new website or an enterprise application for your business
- commercial off the shelf software (COTS) designed to be best in class for a specific business need or function.
- SAAS - software as a service - running from the cloud.  You don't need to do anything to support the software, you simply subscribe to the service.
- OS - operating software - the software that keeps your computer hardware, or indeed cloud hardware operating as it should
- PAAS - software that supports platform as a service - you don't need to look after the hardware, or the patching, or the provisioning, this is all done for you
- SASE - pronounced SASSY - the new software that 'virtualises' all the hardware and connectivity - so you never need to buy or look after a firewall again
- IoT - software written for IoT ("Internet of Things") devices running on programmable chips included on microcontrollers (MCUs), single-board computers like Raspberry Pi,  and specialized sensors and actuators

Standard core business software application types include ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), MRP (Manufacturing Requirements Planning), CRM (Customer Relationship Management), Finance, Accounting, and HR - furthermore each business sector will have specific application types.

Core consumer software categories include gaming, gambling and social media as examples, but the total range of consumer software categories is vast.

The scope, function, and role of software applications is going through a generational change with the power of AI technologies.

AI as a Service / AIaaS - pronounced "ace" is a platform that ingests and analyses specific known data sets, and then provides output that meets confirmed quality criteria, and provides certainty, where required, with regard to IP sources and ownership.


Generative AI platforms are trained on, and ingest large volumes of data from multiple sources.  The issue with this is that the factual integrity of the input, along with IP ownership of the input cannot be confirmed, which makes commercial usability and value of the output questionable.    

AIaaS platforms give control of the data ingested to the user - e.g. internal corporate documentation and contracts, specific website links - so that the IP ownership is known, the credibility of the sources are confirmed, and accordingly the user can know the allowable commercial use cases of the output.

Vertical AI - AI designed for a specific sector or vertical is typically an example of AIaaS.

AI as a Service - AIaaS

The service to ensure that all elements of corporate cloud spend, for IaaS (infrastructure as a service), PaaS (Platform as a service), to SaaS (Software application as a service), from resource usage, licensing, and security compliance, are managed effectively, and driven down to acceptable levels.

IT is the world of Information Technology, and covers everything to to with computer hardware, computer software, information stored on computers, whether in the cloud, or on premise in your own data centre.

IT includes storing, processing, creating or changing data on a computer system - from managing your company accounts, to running your company factory, to creating amazing films, music, art and literature.

IT is at the heart of our world - with applications getting easier and faster to use, and doing more and more for us.

From smart fridges, to smart houses to smart cities - the beauty of efficiency and automation, versus the worries over data privacy, camera surveillance, and govt needs to know, versus an individual's right to privacy.

From cyber currency to cyber crime, from information clarity to online manipulation, troll farms, the dark web, and cyber crime.

This is all the area of IT.
