The other related development is from companies called application software provider (ASPs), who offer to completely handle the processing of selected business applications for a company as an online service.
Hershey Direct is an example of a company E-commerce division which contracted with an ASP called Usinternetworking to set up and handle the application needed to run their website so they could concentrate on the business aspects of their E-commerce initiative.
