The document discusses AWS Marketplace, which allows customers to easily purchase and consume software on AWS. Some key points: - AWS Marketplace has over 699 software partners and more than 2,100 product listings available for purchase. - It simplifies the software procurement process for customers by eliminating the need for license management and allowing customers to consume software hourly, monthly, or annually. - Software vendors and consulting partners can benefit by using AWS Marketplace as a primary sales and delivery channel. It reduces the steps to deliver software from weeks to just a few minutes.

3. Why cloud changes software procurement
“35MM+ physical servers
globally today – only
15% in the cloud” *IDC
Cloud is shifting software from
perpetuity to subscription OR
consumption-based
Enterprises invest $310B
annually in software
Selecting, purchasing, and
deploying is still slow and
manual
“…50% of workloads will
move to the cloud by
2018” *IDC
Companies either bring
licenses, buy “as
needed”, or choose SaaS

4. So, what shift is happening?
• Enterprise, government, SMB changing
