Editor to share with you what the saas system refers to, I believe that most people do not know much about it, so share this article for your reference, I hope you can learn a lot after reading this article, let's go to understand it!

Saas system is the platform for operating saas software, while saas is the abbreviation of "Software-as-a-Service", which means software as a service, that is, software services are provided through the network. Its saas application software has three modes: free, paid and value-added.

The SaaS platform is a platform for operating saas software. SaaS providers build all the network infrastructure, software and hardware operation platforms needed by enterprises for informatization, and are responsible for all the pre-implementation, post-maintenance and other services. Enterprises do not need to purchase software and hardware, build computer rooms, and recruit IT personnel to use the information system through the Internet. SaaS is a software layout model, and its application is specially designed for network delivery, which is convenient for users to host, deploy and access through the Internet.

SaaS is the abbreviated name of Software-as-a-Service, which means software as a service, that is, providing software services through the network.

SaaS platform suppliers deploy the application software on their own servers. According to the actual needs of their work, customers can order the required application software services from the manufacturers through the Internet, pay the manufacturers according to the number and time of the ordered services, and obtain the services provided by the Saas platform suppliers through the Internet.

There are three modes of SaaS applications: free, paid and value-added. The payment is usually an "all-inclusive" fee, including the usual application software license fee, software maintenance fee and technical support fee, which is unified as the monthly rental fee for each user.

SaaS is not only suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, but also enterprises of all sizes can benefit from SaaS.

Characteristics

Internet characteristics

On the one hand, SaaS services provide services for users through Internet browsers or WebServices/Web2.0 programs, which makes SaaS applications have typical Internet technical characteristics; on the other hand, because SaaS greatly shortens the time and space distance between users and SaaS providers, the marketing and delivery of SaaS services are very different from traditional software.

For example, the online ERP, online CRM and other module products provided by NetSuite, a well-known product in the SaaS software industry, are all web-based, which has the advantage of not investing any hardware costs or hiring professional system maintenance personnel to surf the Internet, and can use ERP and CRM systems with browsers. Fast implementation, easy to use and low price all depend on the Internet characteristics of SaaS products.

Multiple tenancy (Multi-tenancy) feature

SaaS services are usually based on a standard software system to provide services to hundreds of different customers (also known as tenants). This requires SaaS services to support the isolation of data and configurations between different tenants, so as to ensure the security and privacy of each tenant's data, as well as users' personalized requirements such as interface, business logic, data structure and so on. Because SaaS supports multiple tenants at the same time, each tenant has many users, which poses a great challenge to the performance, stability and scalability of the infrastructure platform that supports the software. As an Internet-based software delivery model, SaaS is the core task of architects to optimize the performance and operating costs of software after large-scale applications.

Service (Service) feature

SaaS makes the service form of software using the Internet as the carrier to be used by customers, so many problems must be considered, such as the signing of service contracts, the measurement of service use, the guarantee of online service quality and the collection of service fees. These problems are usually not considered by traditional software.

Extensible (Scalable) feature

Scalability means maximizing the concurrency of the system and using system resources more effectively. For example, applications: optimize the persistence of resource locks, use stateless processes, use resource pools to share key resources such as lines and database connections, cache reference data, and partition large databases.
