Three Cloud Computing Models We Work With
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
This service provides infrastructure like servers, operating systems, virtual machines, networks, and storage on a rent basis. Such a service allows you to purchase, install, configure, and manage your own software and applications.
Companies such as AWS, GoogleCloud, and Digital Ocean give you IaaS.
Platform as a Service (PaaS)
This service is used in developing, testing, and maintaining software. Developers rent everything needed to build an application while relying on a cloud provider for development tools, infrastructure, and operating systems.
Companies such as CloudFlare, DataDog, Pulumi, and StackPath provide PaaS.
Software as a Service (SaaS)
This service makes applications available to users through the Internet on a subscription basis.
Companies such asw SalesForce, Gsuite, Dropbox, and Zoom provide SaaS.
