SaaS Business Application Development
What is SaaS?
Software-as-a-service (SaaS) is a way of delivering internet applications as a service that run on a SaaS provider’s servers. Sometimes, SaaS applications are called on-demand software, or hosted software. Instead of installing and maintaining software, the customers or “tenants” simply access the application via the Internet. This setup allows the customers to free themselves from software and hardware management. Typically, the SaaS provider manages application security, access rights, and updates. SaaS business applications are usually accessed by users using a thin client via a web browser.
ClearScale can help your organization develop a multi-tenant SaaS Application, simplify deployments, and reduce IT and customer acquisition costs. SaaS Applications can support a large number of customers with a single version of a product. This multi-tenancy approach allows customers to grow fast without developing their own applications or infrastructure, or adding additional IT resources. Customers can simply “plug-in” and subscribe to the services they need built on shared infrastructure and accessed via the Internet. The model has become popular because of the many benefits it offers to businesses of all types.
SaaS Model Advantages
Multi-Tenant Architecture
A multi-tenant architecture is where all users and applications share a single, common infrastructure and code base that is centrally maintained by the SaaS provider. This allows customers to save time on maintenance and development, and focus on innovation and business growth.
Lower Cost
With a SaaS model, customers pay only for what they need without having to buy hardware to host new applications. The time to a working solution can dramatically decrease from months in the traditional model to weeks, days, or hours with the SaaS model.
High Adoption Rate
Most people are familiar with using the Internet, and SaaS applications can be available from any computer or device, anywhere. SaaS applications typically have lower learning curves and high adoption rates.

ClearScale helped SeligoAI develop a platform to enable colleges and universities to more finely tune their student recruitment and retention efforts for cost savings and better long-term student outcomes. The idea was to gather a broad range of detailed data on prospective students and run it against machine learning algorithms to generate continuously refined, probability-based intelligence. The information could then be used to identify students most likely to prosper at the specific institutions.
