| Software As A Service - Phenomenon in IT | |
SaaS (also known as Software-As-A-Service) is among the most popular buzzwords in IT nowadays. The idea of developing and using Saas software came from the concept of cloud computing. The term Software-As-A-Service is referred to a completely new phenomenon that describes a new online service delivery model involving scalable and virtualized resources. | |  |
| SaaS can be defined as "software deployed as a hosted service and accessed over the Internet." | |
In general, SaaS software is rented not purchased by organizations. The Vendor offers easy access to all the features of software, security of data and information saved on server, and seamless access via any medium with internet access. Customers of SaaS software also enjoy periodic upgrades and other subscription based benefits provided by their vendors.
