ITPEC IP October 2021 — Question 98 of 100
An ASP provides customers with application software running on the provider's server through the Internet. Users access the hosted application as a service rather than installing and operating the full system locally.

Why not others:
- a provider of Internet communication lines is an ISP
- a members-only online community is not the definition of an ASP
- constructing systems around reusable services describes service-oriented architecture
Key rule: An application service provider hosts and operates applications for remote customer use; the concept is a predecessor of many modern SaaS offerings.
