4. SaaS Model and Trends
 Software as a service (SaaS, typically pronounced [sæs]),
sometimes referred to as "software on demand," is software
that is deployed over the internet and/or is deployed to run
behind a firewall on a local area network or personal
computer. With SaaS, a provider licenses an application to
customers as a service on demand, through a subscription or a
"pay-as-you-go" model.
 By 2015, 24% of new business software purchases will be
service-enabled software -- SaaS delivery will be 13.1% of
worldwide software spend (IDC)
 Mobile SaaS Market reached $1.2B in 2011 and predicted to
grow to $3.7B by 2016 (IDC)
 The cloud based medical imagery market reached $56.5M in
2010 and predicted to grow at compound annual growth rate
of 27% (IDC)
 The global cloud computing market reached $40.7B in 2011
and predicted to grow to $241B in 2020 (Forrester)
 More than one third of respondents (37%) plan to replace on-
premises software with SaaS to drive down total cost of
ownership (TCO), Gartner found.
