Application hosting is the latest buzz word; however, we complicate the term ‘hosting’ by drawing clouds in our mind. In simple terms, hosted application development services mean that an application can be developed in a way that it can be installed on any web server and can be used from anywhere, anytime with the help of the Internet. Hosted applications are much like common web applications we come across every day.
Hosted application development service providers eliminate the need for purchase of hardware or software within the enterprises. This service also forbids the need of hiring skilled resources for continuous infrastructure management. Primarily, enterprises avail hosted application development services to cut costs and to pass on the headache of infrastructure or application management to the third-party by paying them regularly as per the usage.
There are multiple benefits of availing hosted application development services, as follows:
Focus on the core business: It allows enterprises to forget the hassle of managing their application infrastructure and concentrate on core business activities and key operations to leveraging profitability.
Security: Security is third-party’s responsibility. Promoting modern technology and safe environment, hosting solution providers protect your data all the time for theft or unauthorized access.
Integration with the latest platforms: The application is not platform-bound. It can run in any environment increasing the accessibility. Application can be used through any standard browser.
