Cloud computing offers on-demand access to computing resources like servers, storage, databases, and software, delivered over the internet.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): IaaS provides businesses with virtualized computing resources over the internet. This includes virtual machines, storage, and networking components. IaaS allows organizations to avoid the hassles of managing physical hardware while gaining flexibility and scalability.
Platform as a Service (PaaS): PaaS offers a platform that enables developers to build, deploy, and manage applications without the complexities of infrastructure management. It provides tools and frameworks for application development, database management, and more.
Software as a Service (SaaS): SaaS delivers software applications over the internet on a subscription basis. Users can access these applications via a web browser, eliminating the need for local installations. Common examples include email services, CRM software, and office productivity suites.
