An application that provides IT Capabilities. It is modeled as a UML component. IT Apps, along with App Servers, Browsers, DBMSs, and Operating Systems, are collectively referred to as IT Software.

For example, you may need Presentation and Work Session components to configure the IT App and a Service component to provide the capability to the Business Apps.
