Which cloud-computing acronym best describes a service model that delivers an entire on-demand platform-including servers, networking, operating system, middleware and development tools-for creating, testing and deploying applications?
Platform as a Service (PaaS) hands developers a complete cloud-based runtime environment. The provider manages the servers, storage, networking, OS and middleware, so the customer only supplies and maintains application code and data. SaaS offers finished end-user applications, IaaS supplies only raw compute, storage and networking resources, and SECaaS delivers cloud-based security functions rather than a development platform.
