Application services are an interconnected pool of internal and external services businesses depend on to optimise, deploy and manage applications.
As digital transformation continues to accelerate and reshape how the world conducts business, applications are taking on increased significance. Today, organisations large and small rely heavily on essential software solutions, not only to support and enhance, but to drive success. And this reliance on business software is only increasing.
But as innovation accelerates, concerns about application security, visibility, consistency and performance are likewise becoming more pressing. After all, when software is central to a business, what happens when that software fails to perform optimally, efficiently or securely?
In many cases, application services and application service management may be the answer. Application services support and enhance application use and are configured to provide companies with specific software services. Application services are made up of applications and hosts that operate in tandem and may be designed either for business- or customer-facing app solutions.
