infrastructure by renting
servers, virtual machines,
storage, networks, and
operating systems from a
cloud provider.
Instant computing
infrastructure, provisioned
and managed over the
internet.
Platform as a Service (PaaS)
Provides environment
for building, testing,
and deploying software
applications.
Helps create
applications quickly,
without focusing on
managing underlying
infrastructure.
