What is an Application Service Provider?

The true value of the ASP model is that customers may use specialized applications more quickly and at lower cost. The ASP solution suppliers offer the applications, computer infrastructure and various support services on subscription. It hosts the applications in a remote data centre and supplies them to the customers via the Internet.

To better understand what ASP consists of, one could compare its use with that of transportation means. Several people use their own vehicles, having paid for the purchase price and maintenance, while others use the train; they pay according to their use and share the engine with other passengers while having their own compartment.

Consequently, ASP makes it possible for all to acquire and use specialized applications, while avoiding the use of human, financial and technological resources. They are guided onto the tracks of technology.
