The New Economics of SaaS: What Changes When Anyone Can Build
AI has made launching software easier than ever — but building a scalable SaaS business is a different challenge. Hivelocity CPO Ned Pope and CRO Matt Schatz dig into how SaaS economics are shifting, and what founders and engineering leaders need to know as cloud-first decisions collide with sustained workloads, rising costs, and database performance at scale. Featuring real-world examples of SaaS companies rethinking where their workloads run — and why the smarter question is often which workload belongs where. Learn how hybrid infrastructure pairs cloud elasticity with dedicated performance, and why "we get SaaS because we're BMaaS" sums up Hivelocity's approach.
The Infrastructure Blind Spot in Fintech Cost Models
The best infrastructure decisions start with the workload, not the budget. Hivelocity CPO Ned Pope shows how regulated organizations can deploy secure bare metal, simplify application delivery, and trade unpredictable cloud costs for infrastructure that aligns with business outcomes. Includes live walkthroughs of the MyVelocity portal, one-click deployment via the App Marketplace, and a Metabase demo for BI and analytics — plus practical guidance on hybrid strategies and supporting compliant workloads in financial services.
Infrastructure is a Board-Level Decision Now
IT infrastructure decisions used to be simple. Cloud services were often the default answer. IT teams moved data and workloads to the cloud to save capital costs and gain greater resource flexibility. Today, leaders recognize that cloud economics don’t always work. Cloud pricing is built for elasticity, but most enterprise workloads don’t need that elasticity. They need performance, predictability, and a bill that does not increase every year.
