Salesforce.com unveils Marketplace

Salesforce.com last week finally launched its oft-discussed platform for hosting non-CRM applications that it and third parties have created.

Plans for the AppExchange software services marketplace were first disclosed by the hosted software vendor in September.

The AppExchange network allows software developers to create, market and deliver applications to Salesforce.com subscribers. The infrastructure is managed by Salesforce.com so that the partners providing the software -- and their customers -- won't have to worry about reliability and security.
