The difference between a cloud and SaaS

Cloud computing is the future of business, where as SaaS isn’t necessarily the future of business, as much as it is a business/design concept.  There is this common misconception that “cloud” computing is hosted applications or services.  That is not cloud computing, that is SaaS.

SaaS stands for “Software as a Service” a basic example of “SaaS” is webmail.  If your organization has email but offers a fully functional webmail client then, they’re offering software (email client) as a service that is not dependent on your computer.
