Answer to Question 1

Cloud computing allows companies to gain the benefits of software without having to install computing hardware and maintain it. As the software changes, users do not need to upgrade or reconfigure their servers. The vendor manages the entire software installation at its sites. The software user pays a subscription fee, which can be as low as a few hundred dollars per user per year.

Answer to Question 2

Supply chain management (SCM) software helps companies to coordinate planning and operations with their partners in the industry supply chains of which they are members. SCM software performs two general types of functions: planning and execution. Most companies that sell SCM software offer products that include both components, but the functions are quite different. SCM planning software helps companies develop coordinated demand forecasts using information from each participant in the supply chain. SCM execution software helps with tasks such as warehouse and transportation management.
