The software used by enterprise businesses for creating variable-data customer documents must be highly reliable, and vendors are increasingly distributing such software via the cloud as an online service. This means that vendors now assume responsibility for the IT resources hosting and supporting the software as well as the customer documents and data. Vendors also assume responsibility for pushing updates to all customers simultaneously. To support the test and release of new versions, software vendors must deploy and configure the software at an unprecedented rate.
