The development of software increasingly takes place in line with an inter-firm division of labor. In doing so, the product ranges of large software platform providers (so-called hubs) are supplemented by software solutions from other, often smaller suppliers (the so-called spokes). In turn, this leads to the formation of so-called software platform ecosystems.
