Morphology
The meaning 'a computer program designed to address a specific problem' is directly and compositionally derived from 'software' (programs) + 'solution' (an answer/remedy). This noun-noun compounding pattern is common and transparent across languages and would be clear to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Software solution combines software, meaning computer programs, and solution, a word people imagine as a liquid that 'fixes' a problem. So it means a program or set of programs made to 'solve' a specific problem.
