what is oauth and how salesforce maintain oauth architecture and is it possible to customize our application.

Satya :

OAuth is all about sharing. The OAuth is a protocol that enables a website (the consumer) to access protected resources from another web service (the service provider) through an API. The benefit of OAuth is that the API does not require users to disclose their provider credentials to consumers, and they can revoke the consumer's access to the service provider at any time.

This link (https://developer.salesforce.com/page/Using_OAuth_to_Authorize_External_Applications) will give you complete understanding of OAuth and how Salesforce maintains its OAuth architechture.
