Software as a Service
Software as a Service development model is one of the trends which changes radically industry’s face. Gone are those times when users had to pay for development tools, server hardware, operating system software, storage, or data centers, etc. As well as then having to manage the cost of current IT operations support. This traditional model was a cash-consuming one, especially for SME; but also for big corporations operating internationally.
In this perspective, SaaS is a good answer to all these challenges. The model is qualified as a hot trend in IT industry. According to many research agencies (e.g., Gartner) while the overall software market is declining this year, the SaaS market will show a growth, at twice the general rate.
SaaS development model
Quite simply, SaaS is a software application delivery model where the vendor develops a Web-native application and then hosts it, provides maintenance, daily technical operation and support for the software for their client. Most experts agree that to be considered SaaS, the application must be delivered via the Internet, and have commoditized options. It means software must closely meet the needs of a company, regardless of industry. Customers pay only for the use of the given software product.
It’s easy to understand why Software as a Service model is gaining popularity. Using this technology companies can focus on managing the business and leave the IT infrastructure headaches behind.
