Software as a Service (SaaS), a pivotal component of cloud computing introduced in the early 2000s, allows users to access and use application software over the internet. SaaS applications are hosted on cloud servers, freeing users from installing software on individual devices. This model supports a wide range of business applications, including email (e.g. Exchange Online / Microsoft 365), customer relationship management (CRM) (e.g. Salesforce), and document management, providing flexibility, scalability, and cost savings by eliminating the need for extensive hardware and enabling subscription-based access.
