Software as a Service SaaS


Sometimes also known as Office 2.0.


Software as a service (SaaS) is a model of hosted software delivery. It potentially provides a more cost-effective alternative for enterprises to achieve their business objectives than traditional packaged applications.


Software as a Service is a delivery model where companies pay not for owning the software itself but for using it. In the SaaS scenario, a software provider is responsible for its availability (maintenance, scalability, disaster recovery, etc.).
