For a variety of reasons, many enterprises are using the Internet as a model for new
application development. The major reason is ease of deployment. Every machine
with a browser and connection to the server has immediate access to the applica-
tion. No messy software has to be installed and kept up to date on each machine.
The browser provides a feature-rich environment for sophisticated and user-
friendly applications. As more and more people become Internet savvy, education
and training costs are dramatically reduced.
