I recently read a TechCrunch article titled: The Rise of Big Data Apps and the Fall of SaaS written by Raj De Datta.
I do agree with the prefix. As far as the suffix is concerned, I can only explain why Raj De Datta’s opinion is wrong.
I usually tend not to agree with statements about premature End of Life of technologies or architectures or trends.
In most cases, it easier to kill a concept in writing, than to persuade a large number of users to change their habits.
