Application Service Providers are third-party entities that manage and
distribute software-based services and solutions to customers across a
wide area network from a central data center. In essence, ASPs are a
way for companies to outsource some or almost all aspects of their
information technology needs.
Here are some helpful sites to learn more about ASP:
(1) ASP Island (an Internet.com site)
http://aspisland.com/
(2) ASP Industry Consortium
http://www.aspindustry.org/
(3) ASP News
http://www.aspnews.com/
(4) The WASP (Web Application Service Provider) site can provide some
direction:
