Frequently asked questions about Cloud & SaaS solutions
Software-as-a-Service ,(or SaaS) is sometimes also called web-based software, on-demand software or hosted software. Whatever the name is, the concept is the same. SaaS is a way of delivering applications over the internet as a service. Instead of installing and maintaining software, you simply access it via an internet connection, freeing yourself from complex software and hardware management.
Cloud services refer to a wide range of services delivered on-demand over the internet. These services are designed to provide easy, affordable access to applications and resources without the need for internal infrastructure or hardware. Cloud services are managed by cloud computing vendors and service providers so there is no need for a company to host applications on its own on-premise servers.
Cloud and SaaS solutions share many common points but also some differences such as:
- The cloud makes it possible to configure and guide software applications on a server hosted remotely.
- The cloud allows access to all data from servers via the internet.
- SaaS solutions require paying a subscription to access a software application.
- The user is not the author of the software maintenance.
- A SaaS solution does not offer the ability to manage and customize the application.
Cloud services consist of three main models: IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service), PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) and SaaS (Software-as-a-Service).
IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service)
It is a server/database which is managed by the cloud provider. It is possible to create an application on IaaS instead of users managing the backend of our applications themselves.
PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service)
PaaS allows you to go further than IaaS because it provides development tools as well as an infrastructure and multiple supports to design applications
SaaS (Software-as-a-Service)
As well as granting users access to IaaS and PaaS, SaaS gives access to cloud-hosted applications through a web browser.
