Nothing new, really! Someone else looks after application and your data SaaS –New name for ASP (Application Service Provider) –Web-based products, generally aimed at SME –Monthly access fee (not perpetual license) What is the ‘cloud’? –Product hosted off-site, not in-house –SLA is with vendor. (They have separate SLA with hosting provider.) What is SaaS?

Convenience & lower cost of ownership Someone else looks after application and your data –No backups, no upgrades –Minimal IT skill needed –Available anywhere, no expensive infrastructure But... Why SaaS is cool
