SaaS (Software as a Service) is a new emerging software application delivery model based on Internet. SaaS serves for multiple tenants with a list of business services to be delivered. The configurability of SaaS application has become an attractive aspect for tenants. The characteristics of the SaaS configurability have resulted in a recent drive to revisit the design of software architecture and challenges resulting from SaaS application. Existing approaches have made configurability strategies with external model that used formal method. The proposed method is novel because it utilizes the software architecture as a lever to coordinate between functional architectural elements and configurability components. By employing AOP (Aspect-oriented Programming), the method regards configurability as a crosscutting to realize configurability of SaaS application. Finally, a case study is assessed based on the proposed method.
