BEA Announces SaaS Initiatives

Another couple of interesting announcements came this week at BEAWorld. First, EnterConnect Inc. and BEA announced a partnership under which BEA will provide the infrastructure to power SOAAPPS.com, which will be a business on-demand marketplace for mid-market executives seeking enterprise applications through SaaS. In its press release, EnterConnect predicted that the move would "empower independent software vendors to build, market, sell, deploy and manage SaaS offerings" and to better take advantage of growth in the SaaS market. More here.

BEA also announced a new project, code-named Genesis, in which it aimed to bfring together a number of Web 2.0 technologies into a business application platform to facilitate assemby and deployment of dynamic business applications. eWeek's Darryl K. Taft reported on the announcement and a speech by BEA Chairman and CEO Alfred Chuang, in which Chuang stated that the family of products that comprise Genesis will also facilitate BEA's introduction of SaaS functionality.
