Understanding SaaS

SaaS stands for Software as a Service. It is a cloud computing model where software applications are hosted by a third-party provider and made available to customers over the internet. Users can access these applications via a web browser without needing to install or maintain the software locally on their own devices. SaaS providers handle maintenance, updates, security, and scalability of the software, allowing organizations to focus on using the software rather than managing it.
