describe the role ERP software plays in an organization;
describe cloud computing and its advantages and disadvantages for use in an organization; and
define the term open-source and identify its primary characteristics.

The second component of an information system is software. Simply put: Software is the set of instructions that tell the hardware what to do. Software is created through the process of programming. Without software, the hardware would not be functional.
