A company wants to migrate its locally installed office productivity suite to a cloud-based solution that is accessible via a web browser, requires no local installation, and is managed entirely by the provider. Which cloud computing model best fits this requirement?
Software as a Service (SaaS) is the correct model because it delivers ready-to-use software applications over the internet, typically on a subscription basis. An example is a web-based email or an office productivity suite like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, where the provider manages all aspects of the service, including the application, data, and infrastructure. IaaS provides only the underlying infrastructure, PaaS provides a platform for development, and DaaS delivers a full virtual desktop environment, not just specific applications.
