Pam Murphy, COO, Infor, at AWS Summit 2014 with theCUBE's John Furrier and Jeff Frick

The most significant new service announcement, however, came from Infor, a major enterprise software provider whose products include enterprise asset management, enterprise resource planning, CRM, and product lifecycle management. It announced SaaS versions of its core product suite running on AWS. In an interview in theCUBE just after making the announcement (see embedded video below), Infor COO Pam Murphy said it is getting strong interest both from established Infor customers and new prospects. Customers, she said, are very interested in moving core compute loads to the cloud.
This is a full endorsement of AWS as a platform, not just for development or non-essential applications but for core traditional enterprise applications such as enterprise performance management, supply chain management, and financial management. Infor is staking a big part of its future on AWS as a platform that will deliver the service levels its customers require. Admittedly these are not customer-facing applications, nor do they require absolute instantaneous response times. Companies will not stop operating if their supply chain management system runs a few minutes slow occasionally. But no CIO would want her company's financial management to crash, on the other hand, and Infor is basically promising to its clients that those systems will run at acceptable service levels 24X7X365 on AWS.
And Infor is no small company. Its clients include more than 600 medium-to-large corporations, and has been named a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for corporate management software. So it brings connections into many important potential enterprise customers to AWS, the kinds of connections that IBM and HP have in this market. This plus the price reductions makes a potent combination that will bring AWS directly into the heart of the enterprise services market.
