While in the early days of software engineering, a software product was the result of an independent software company, modern software strongly relies on components and infrastructure from third party vendors or open source suppliers. The relationship between software development companies and solution\/service providers will shapte the product software landscape into software ecosystems. In such an eco-system suppliers and buyers of software products collaboratively create competitive value. Software has no physical limitation, therefore the main limitations are conceptual, social and of economic nature. While fixed value-chains are transformed into value networks the process goes hand in hand with some kind of \u201cdigital disruption\u201d. Some popular examples to be mentioned are:<\/p>\n
Change in the information age primarily has addressed automation and thus efficiency. With the advent of PCs and later with the internet and clients-server architectures the competition among companies required effectiveness on top of automation and efficiency. With mobiles, apps, the cloud and web services we have entered the digital age in which eco-systems play a major role. The capability to innovate has become paramount on top of being automated, efficient and effective. This transition is accompanied in terms of the following market characteristics:<\/p>\n
