Service Providers

APS creates a new revenue opportunity for both hosting industry service providers and independent software vendors by introducing a "pluggable" approach to distributing SaaS applications. Once packaged in the APS format by a software vendor, an application can be easily "plugged" into an infrastructure of any hosting provider that implemented the standard "socket" for the APS applications.

The introduction of APS advances the web hosting industry. By implementing APS, hosting service providers can gain access to a great variety of APS applications. In turn, application vendors that implement APS, can get access to a vast sales and marketing channel via APS-enabled hosting providers.

Here are some compelling reasons why APS is an excellent opportunity for you:
