At Aleannlab, we help build a Data Science plan for SaaS companies to develop solutions backed with DevOps that provide continuous integration and a continuous deployment pipeline along with automated testing. These practices are vital for companies to maintain a competitive advantage. Through continuous integrations, we develop, test, and deploy code in numerous environments. By doing so, we get feedback rapidly and problems can be identified when they occur. Changes are not deployed until they are tested repeatedly. This early step in a CI/CD pipeline helps ascertain issues quickly.

As the product reaches critical mass, it gets a sudden inflow of users and a need for highly complex computation. Your SaaS product has to be scalable since you cannot plan for growth without it. If you keep acquiring more customers while the product performance worsens, you will ultimately lose them. When you proactively plan to scale your product, it will function properly even after you expand your app functionality and customer base substantially, which will enhance your revenue.

SaaS products run on monthly cycles and hence the traffic and nature of software usage can vary accordingly. Ideally, a subscription lifecycle should not end when a subscription expires. When a customer aims to grow by upgrading or simply renewing their subscription and receives any updates, the cycle goes on. A subscription lifecycle playbook provides more than a blueprint to retain customers. It acts as a training tool and a source of performance measurement.

SaaS software development requires continuous testing and changes as versions continue to evolve. During the first iteration, the core feature set is created centred around the chosen architecture. Subsequently, new updates, improvements, and functionalities are integrated into that core. The extent of each iteration that follows is based on market feedback and continues to evolve.

The security of a SaaS platform is usually the development team’s onus rather than the end-users. Hence, SaaS platforms have to follow thorough security and compliance strategy. Data must be encrypted, stored with multiple backups and available with 99.99% SLAs.

Through multi-tenancy, your product can run several independent instances of the software tenants using a scalable and resilient architecture in a single ecosystem. The fundamental infrastructure is entirely shared and includes integrated services. Through the adoption of multi-tenant architecture, SaaS application development companies benefit from building a single source of trust, reduction of server infrastructure costs and better performance
