Building Application Based-On Saas Concept

Hospital is a health organization that has concern about

using software application in order to support its

business processes to achieve efficiency. Nowadays,

there are many software available in the market ready to

solve the hospital’s problems, not to mention software

developements that are also done internally. However,

owning a software comes with costs, which not merely

be spent on buying and deploying the software. The

software Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), the popular

term linked to all related costs, also comprises of

hardware costs, software development costs, software

license and upgrade costs, ongoing operational expenses,

and maintenance expenses. Consequently, an

organization basically spend much money to properly

have software-assisted business process.

Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) emerges as one the

solutions. SaaS is a concept that shifts some paradigms

in business models, application architecture, and

operational structure[2]. SaaS provides basically pay-asyou-

go model by subscribing to use an application[3]

and has been proven that SaaS has clear operational,

financial winner in term of cost-saving, and provides

availability and redundancy advantages[4][5].
