A startup plans to launch a new web application. The team wants to focus on writing and deploying code while Google Cloud manages the underlying servers, operating system patches, and runtime environment. They still need full control over the application's business logic and configuration settings. Which cloud computing model best matches this scenario?
Because the team wants to supply and control its own application code but does not want to provision or maintain the underlying servers, operating systems, or runtime stack, a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering is the best fit. PaaS solutions let customers deploy custom applications to a managed platform that handles infrastructure, patching, and scaling. Infrastructure as a Service would still require the team to manage virtual machines and operating systems, and Software as a Service would provide a finished application they could not customize at the code level. Colocation hosting is an on-premises alternative that leaves all hardware and software management to the customer.
