HI Priya, see below, Regards Andy

In information technology, a footprint is the amount of space a particular unit of hardware or software occupies. Marketing brochures frequently state that a new hardware control unit or desktop display has a "smaller footprint," meaning that it occupies less space in the closet or on your desk. More recently, the term is used to describe microcomponents that take less space inside a computer and software that occupies less space in memory (whether random access memory or read-only memory ).

Hi,

  Might be you heard Ajax Foot print,is nothing but the application which you developed will be deployed on the QV server for End user. So the users will access your App through plugin called Ajax.

I guess some one can give more info on this
