Cloud service consists of various components and services that are delivered to users over the internet by cloud computing providers. These services often follow a pay-as-you-go model and can broadly be categorized into three main types:
1. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): This is the most basic category of cloud services, offering physical or virtual machines, storage, and networks. It allows businesses to rent servers in the cloud to run their software solutions, instead of purchasing and maintaining physical hardware. Examples of IaaS providers include Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Compute Engine.
2. Platform as a Service (PaaS): PaaS provides a framework for developers that they can use to build custom applications. This service offers an abstracted way to deploy, run, and manage applications without the complexity of maintaining the underlying infrastructure. PaaS examples include AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Microsoft Azure App Services, and Google App Engine.
3. Software as a Service (SaaS): SaaS delivers software applications over the internet, on a subscription basis, removing the need for organizations to install and run applications on their own computers or in their own data centers. This greatly reduces the expense of software ownership and maintenance. Examples of SaaS include Google Workspace, Salesforce, and Microsoft 365.
Cloud services can also include:
– Database as a Service (DBaaS): Managed database services that help in storing, managing, and scaling databases without the need for setting up physical hardware,
