It is an emerging model of business computing. Representing the central unit in the software structure of a warehouse is a Warehouse Management System. The WMS receives orders from the overlying host system, mostly an ERP system, manages these in a database and, after appropriate optimization, supplies them to the connected conveyor systems. In this paper we propose to host a dynamic web application which will manage the warehouse efficiently which will manage multiple users, multiple warehouses, stock inward and outward, graphical analysis for Product Stocks, Purchase Order, Stock In and Stock out. We will use software-as-service (SaaS) to provide this management. Key words: Cloud computing, Warehouse management, SaaS. 1. INTRODUCTION A warehouse management system (WMS) is a software application, designed to support warehouse or distribution center management and staff. They facilitate management in their daily planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and controlling the utilization of available resources, to move and store materials into, within, and out of a warehouse, while supporting staff in the performance of material movement and storage in and around a warehouse. What is Cloud Computing? An information technology (IT) paradigm, a model for enabling ubiquitous access to shared pools of configurable resources (such as computer networks, servers, storage, applications and services), which can be rapidly provisioned with minimal management effort, often over the Internet is known as Cloud Computing[3]. Cloud computing providers offer services based on three basic service models 1) IaaS: Infrastructure as service. 2) PaaS: Platform as service 3) SaaS: Software as service. In this project we are using Software as service(SaaS). About SaaS A common delivery model for many business applications, including Accounting, Collaboration, Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Management Information Systems is SaaS. The providers install and operate application software in the cloud and cloud users access the software from cloud clients. The prominent features of service models of the cloud computing are the reason behind the familiarity of this computing model. Software cloud (i.e. SaaS focusing on middleware as a service, or traditional CRM as a service) [4] 2. LITERATURE SURVEY A web based software application, designed to support warehouse or distribution center management or vendors or company and employee is WMS. Now-a-days mostly WMS are standalone application, due to which Vendor or supplier or end customers are not able to check stock information in warehouse. It needs high maintenance and not possible to manage multiple warehouses. Internal transfer between two warehouses is not possible. This facilitates management in their daily planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and controlling the utilization of available resources, to move and store materials into, within, and out of a warehouse, while supporting staff in the performance of material movement and storage in and around a warehouse. It will also provide a Graphical Analysis for Products Stocks, Purchase Order, Stock In and Stock out. Paper Contain: 1. Cloud Computing- An information technology (IT) paradigm, a model for enabling ubiquitous access to shared pools of configurable resources (such as computer networks, servers, storage, applications and services), which can be rapidly provisioned with minimal management effort, often over the Internet is known as Cloud Computing. It allows users and enterprises with various computing capabilities to store and process data either in a privately- owned cloud, or on a third-party server located in a data centre - thus making data-accessing mechanisms more efficient and reliable. Cloud computing relies on sharing of
