Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software is software that is ready to be bought, installed, and used. Some COTS software is designed for the mass market, such as Microsoft Office. Others are specialized for a particular business process. For example, SAS offers software for statistical analysis. Much of COTS software is also produced for particular industries with features they need. Practice-web, for example, develops specialty software for dentists. Software as a service, which is also a popular form of COTS software, is an information system that is owned, hosted, and managed remotely by a vendor. Organizations pay subscription fees to access it via the web, based on their own volumes.
