Today, the SaaS service layer consists of billions of user-SaaS relationships, connections, and activity—dwarfing the digital footprints of IaaS and PaaS—accounting for more than 75 percent of cloud services used by today’s digital enterprise. Modern work has only accelerated the transition to surrender more operational and functional control to SaaS services — from factories to finance, HR to IT— the enterprise runs on SaaS.
