    Nice, but to really get the message through, once you talk to mid size businesses + which already made the infrastructure investment, then you have to dig into the multi tenancy arguments as well as the meta data components to get your more versed interlocuters to hear you and not think it’s another buzz. we need more technical toolkits and white papers about the architecture, because IT managers and decision makers we meet are really interested to understand how the software works and why it takes less time to build apps.
