What is SaaS?: "SaaS (Software as a Service) is an application hosted on a remote server and accessed through the Internet.
A simple and concrete example of SaaS are the 'free' email (also called web-based email) systems offered on the Internet such as Microsoft Hotmail, G-mail and Yahoo Mail. Each program meets the basic criteria of an SaaS application: a vendor (Microsoft, Google or Yahoo) hosts all of the programs, logic and data in a central location and provides end users access to this data and the software which is run and used over the world-wide web.
This 'simple' application architecture can then be applied to a wide range of software applications for use by either business enterprises or individual end-users."
