## Research context: Technology and software

When researching a technology business, distinguish the product from its delivery model. Software licensing, subscriptions, services, and hardware can describe different customer relationships even when companies operate in the same broad sector. A short public description rarely establishes the revenue model, the ownership of intellectual property, or the customer base.

### Questions for researching Workday, Inc.

- Does the company describe a specific product, a service engagement, or a platform connecting other parties?
