After announcing that it will offer hosted versions of Exchange and SharePoint, Microsoft is detailing plans to host third-party applications for partner companies.
Microsoft will soon detail ways that partner companies will be able to deliver their services based on Microsoft's hosted services, the software company said on Tuesday.
When Microsoft earlier this year announced that it will host its Exchange and SharePoint software for businesses of any size, some third-party software providers wondered about their futures. Companies that offer software that runs on SharePoint, for example, were worried that they wouldn't be able to offer products to customers of Microsoft's hosted service.
