“Software is eating the world” said Netscape founder Marc Andreessen in his Wall Street Journal 2011 op-ed to describe how digital technology has transformed the world of business. We divide the disruption into two stages; efficient pipelines disrupting inefficient pipelines and platforms disrupting pipelines. Most Internet applications during the 1990s involved the creation of highly efficient pipelines—online systems for distributing goods and services that out-competed incumbent industries. Online pipelines tended to have very low marginal costs of distribution—sometimes as low as zero. This allowed them to target and serve large markets with much smaller investment. We are now in stage two where platforms disrupt pipelines. They bring news sources of supply to market, change value consumption by facilitating new forms of consumer behavior, change quality control through crowd sourced curation, and bring new market middlemen by aggregating fragmented markets.

Platform Shift: How New Business Models Are Changing the Shape of IndustryMarshall Van Alstyne
Companies that can transform their traditional business models into network models will have a competitive advantage based on new insights into pricing, network effects, supply chains, and strategy. These principles show how dotcom companies like Airbnb, Amazon, Apple and Uber managed, in a relatively short time, to attract millions of clients worldwide. But they apply also to traditional product companies like Sony, shoe companies like Nike, and spice companies like McCormick. New business models help these companies extend existing transactions to new, associated products and services. Platforms beat products every time. This talk reveals the secret of Internet-driven platforms, why they happen, and what changes they imply.
Consider first that platforms are becoming a dominant form of business organization. Then consider how you transition an existing product to a platform. This talk illustrates steps to make the transition. It then describes what an open business model looks like and compares differences in openness of Apple, Google, Microsoft and others.
The Platform Manifesto - 16 principles for digital transformationSangeet Paul Choudary
The Platform Manifesto is a collection of principles that succinctly defines how different aspects of business transform in a world of digital platforms.
We present an economic framework to understand and manage platform growth. This builds from a model of network complements and two sided markets. The intuitions help set prices, openness, and features to absorb into the platform. The intuitions also help shape the transition from a traditional business model to a platform strategy.

Platforms: How Change in Industry is Driving Change in StrategyMarshall Van Alstyne
Presentation at MIT Platform Summit on how economic change in the Internet era parallels change in the Industrial era, but for the opposite reason. This inverts marketing, operations, finance, IT, strategy and innovation.
These slides discuss Network Effects, Platforms, Standards, and Complex Systems. All of these concepts continue to become more important as the digital economy progresses. From Uber to Instacart, and from smart phones to driverless vehicles, these concepts are playing an increasingly important role in the global economy. Their impact is most obvious when one thinks of the winner take all markets that are becoming increasingly common.
Essentials of a platform business modelValueCoders
A platform business model connects buyers and suppliers who can then transact with ease. This model is being seen as the latest trend in businesses of today.

Multi-sided platforms are the superior way of doing business today. This content will help you define a marketplace business with the network effect. All network orchestrators must perform well at least 4 functions listed in this presentation.
Network effects. It’s one of the most important concepts for business in general and especially for tech businesses, as it’s the key dynamic behind many successful software-based companies. Understanding network effects not only helps build better products, but it helps build moats and protect software companies against competitors’ eating away at their margins.
Yet what IS a network effect? How do we untangle the nuances of 'network effects' with 'marketplaces' and 'platforms'? What’s the difference between network effects, virality, supply-side economies of scale? And how do we know a company has network effects?
Most importantly, what questions can entrepreneurs and product managers ask to counter the wishful thinking and sometimes faulty assumption behind the belief that “if we build it, they will come” … and instead go about more deterministically creating network effects in their business? Because it's not a winner-take-all market by accident.
This lecture describes the Platform model or Two-sided Markets. Platforms serve multiple customer groups and benefit from network effects that take place with and between those groups. Businesses based on Platforms are able to adopt innovative pricing structures in which one side subsidizes another. When the marginal costs are near zero it can be practical to drop the subsidized price all the way to zero.

Both 2021 and 2022 have been hallmark years in all things Web3, crypto, and blockchain. The market has dramatically expanded - we’ve seen new highs and some sobering lows alongside extraordinary and constant innovation. Here at Vayner3, we’ve grown from a small group of passionate crypto- natives to an end-to-end Web3 consultancy with 25+ enterprise clients across CPG, Retail, Fashion, Automotive, and Tech. Recent events have certainly surfaced clear bad actors and put the space in the spotlight for the wrong reasons, but we remain optimistic about our Web3 future. This paper will help explain why.
Web3 is the next evolution of the internet, consumer behavior, and culture powered by blockchain technology. Our definition of Web3 includes new technologies - cryptocurrencies, NFTs, DeFi, and the “metaverse” - but it also includes an important cultural and behavioral layer. Over the last 2 years, we have seen a renaissance begin in digital art, fashion, sports, music, and identity. As consumers spend more and more of their time online - and younger generations grow with a more intertwined version of physical and digital realities - we expect today’s fundamentals of emerging Web3 technology and culture to grow exponentially with profound implications.
In this paper, we attempt to dissect the meta Web3 narrative, dive into the data, and identify true signal in a (very) noisy market. We look at what matters most to marketers and operators at large enterprise organizations considering Web3 tech, and we focus on the near-term future. We stay grounded in business and technological realities, and we fully acknowledge that macroeconomic forces and regulatory changes could play a major role in how 2023 unfolds. All things considered, we remain convinced: Web3 is going increasingly mainstream in 2023. Let’s build the future together.

R&D Focus: Amazon Mechanical Turk as a platform for curating research articles Amazon Web Services
The volume of biomedical literature is massive -- there are over one million new research articles published every year (roughly one every thirty seconds). To make those articles more usable in research, Scripps Research Institute is exploring ways in which Citizen Scientists can perform "biocuration". They’ll share learnings from one experiment conducted to identify all mentions of diseases and disease concepts in the abstracts of 973 biomedical research articles. Scripps used Amazon Mechanical Turk as the platform for testing the Citizen Science concept and interface, and will discuss how researchers can utilize crowdsourcing to solve complex R&D compute problems that require a degree of human intelligence.
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled Biz Models for Hi-Tech Products to analyze the business model for Uber’s taxi service. Uber’s service enables anyone to provide taxi services and it provides dynamic pricing for better matching of supply and demand. Its value proposition for potential drivers is the opportunity to work as driver on their own hours. Its value proposition for user to lower taxi fares during most times of the day and a higher supply of taxis (and higher prices) during peak demand. The customers are tech-savvy and smart phone users who value their time. Uber receives payments directly from customers and keeps a percentage of these payments as its income. Uber’s patents for a demand-price algorithm represent a barrier of entry and thus a method of strategic control.
Open Source means a lot of things and revolutionized the way software is built over the last two decades.
Whether developing a product or providing a service, companies are rushing to get their businesses cloud ready, increasingly (big) data driven and flexible enough to take advantage of the inherent business scalability opportunities offered by the cloud.
And as the focus switches to the scale economies of execution, from ever cheaper opaque hosted web storage and connected services to the immutable containers movement, a question arises: what is the role of Open Source software in a world in which not only software (SaaS), but also platform (PaaS) and infrastructure (IaaS) are increasingly delivered (and consumed) as hosted services?
In this session, we'll attempt to answer to this question, by providing examples of Open Source cloud & big data companies and studying the effects of open development ecosystems and how Open Source is engrained in the fabric of the Cloud.

You're Too Focused on Product/Market Fit - Brian Balfour at SaaSFest 2016Price Intelligently
Over the past ten years, software gurus have been preaching the notion that you need to find product/market fit. Balfour presents an extremely cogent argument that because of the speed of technology now, this advice is no longer valid. In reality, you need to find market, product, channel, model fit (in that order). Balfour lays out his argument in this presentation at Price Intelligently's SaaSFest 2016 by cataloging his experience over his career and view of the market.

Enterprise CI/CD - Scaling the build pipeline at Home DepotVMware Tanzu
SpringOne Platform 2017
Matt Mackenny, Home Depot
It's easy enough to get a build pipeline setup and operational for one team, or even a handful of teams. But in a large organization that requires compliance, governance, and coordination across 100s of teams, putting good build pipelines in place takes some enterprise gumption. After years, we've scaled up CI/CD to many teams. There have been some lessons learned here which we'll cover. Using CI/CD is required as part of the overall software life-cycle to get the all the warm and fuzzy cloud-native benefits, and hopefully this talk will help you get over the hurdles in your organization so you can start worrying about creating high quality software instead of tinkering with your build.
Cloud computing is shared pools of configurable computer system resources and higher-level services that can be rapidly provisioned with minimal management effort, often over the Internet. Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale, similar to a public utility.

SO HOW DO YOU DESIGN A PLATFORM?
LET’S START WITH 3 PRINCIPLES OF PIPE DESIGN…

1. Define the value unit
2. Design the process that adds value and delivers this unit to the customer
3. Design the pipe (value chain) that controls and optimizes this process

Put high frequency usage, low variety components in the core platform (network).
Put low frequency usage, high variety components at the app layer (ends), even if low level.
Implementing any function incurs some resource penalty regardless of whether the function is used or
not. Putting this function in the network distributes these penalties among all clients, regardless of
whether they use that function or not. Saltzer, Reed & Clark (1981)
END TO END PRINCIPLE ALSO FACILITATES NETWORK GROWTH

This deep principle of network architecture also applies to business architecture.
Mac OS X broke from Mac OS 9. Apps incompatible but
emulator helped OS 9 users.
Respecting end-to-end principle vastly improved
efficiency & upgrades
Vista tried to do all things for all users.
Compatible back to DOS. Critics dubbed it
“goatware” because it ate everything.
Did NOT respect end-to-end principle. XP
discontinued in 2008 but had 12% market share
to Vista 2% in 2015

TAKEAWAYS FROM CHAPTER THREE
A platform remakes the pipeline value chain, adding value creation outside the firm.
A platform is fundamentally an infrastructure designed to facilitate three kinds of exchange: information, goods / services, and
currency.
The design of a platform should begin with its core interaction—one kind of interaction that is at the heart of the platform’s value-
creation mission.
Three key elements define the core interaction: the participants, the value unit, and the filter. The value unit is the most crucial, and
often the most difficult to control.
In order to make the core interaction easy and even inevitable, a platform must perform three crucial functions: pull, facilitate, and
match. All three are essential, and each has its special challenges.
As a platform grows, it often finds ways to expand beyond the core interaction. New kinds of interactions may be layered on top of
the core interaction, often attracting new participants in the process.
The end-to-end principle means putting high volume low variety functions in the platform, and putting low volume high variety
functions in the apps.
It’s important to design a platform to make valuable interactions easy for large numbers of users. But it’s also important to leave
room for serendipity and the unexpected, since users themselves will find new ways to create value on the platform.
