SaaS – PaaS – IaaS

Cloud computing has risen massively in terms of popularity in recent times. This is due to the way it reduces on-premise infrastructure cost and improves efficiency. Primarily, the cloud model has been divided into three major service categories:
  • Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

  • Platform as a Service (PaaS)

  • Software as a Service (SaaS)

Types of Cloud Computing Services
IaaS, PaaS & SaaS

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

Infrastructure as a Service often provides the infrastructure such as servers, virtual machines, networks, operating system, storage, and much more on a pay-as-you-use basis. IaaS providers offer VM from small to extra-large machines.

Platform as a Service (PaaS)

The PaaS model is similar to IaaS, but it also provides the additional tools such as database management system, business intelligence services, and so on.

Software as a Service (SaaS)

Software as a Service (SaaS) makes the users connect to the products through the internet (or sometimes also help them build in-house as a private cloud solution) on a subscription basis model.
