Outlook Web App
Outlook Web App (OWA) is a web-based email client developed by Microsoft, primarily used to access Microsoft Exchange Server mailboxes through a browser. It provides core email functionality such as sending/receiving messages, calendar management, contacts, and tasks, without requiring a desktop email client installation. OWA is commonly deployed in enterprise environments for remote access to corporate email systems.
Developers should learn OWA when building or integrating applications with Microsoft Exchange Server, especially for web-based email access, calendar synchronization, or enterprise collaboration tools. It's useful for scenarios like creating custom web interfaces that interact with Exchange data, automating email workflows, or developing add-ins that extend OWA's functionality in corporate settings.
