Microsoft Azure Fundamentals AZ-900 Practice Question
Your organization plans to move from an on-premises mail server to a cloud-hosted email solution such as Microsoft 365 Outlook. The provider will manage all server hardware, storage, and application software, perform security patching and feature updates, and users will access their mailboxes through a web browser or mobile app. Which cloud service type best describes this scenario?
This scenario is Software as a Service (SaaS) because the email application and all underlying infrastructure are fully operated by the cloud provider. Users simply consume the service; they do not manage servers, operating systems, or the application platform. PaaS would require the customer to deploy or manage the application they build, IaaS would require managing operating systems and middleware, and serverless computing relates to event-driven code execution rather than full applications like email.
