Selected Answer: C

Explanation: This option optimally balances the company's available skill sets and reduces management overhead where expertise is lacking: ✔ Web Servers in IaaS → The company has skilled Linux and web-server engineers, so they can manage web servers in Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) with full control. ✔ Databases in PaaS → The company has few skilled database administrators, so Platform as a Service (PaaS) will handle database maintenance, backups, scaling, and security, reducing the need for DB expertise. ✔ Email in SaaS → Since the company has little expertise in managing email, Software as a Service (SaaS) (like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace) will offload email management completely.

A. is correct. I though DBs were only support through dBaas, Iaas, and Paas but it seems it supported through SaaS as well. It would be nice to know what kind database and capabilities they needed from the DB but since it is generalized to everything it's A.

I will agree as it says they are not very good with Databases so having it in a SaaS will give them most of the backend parts done and they can just focus on putting data into the DB

Can't say I agree with C, too close to my test time to spell this out but it has no votes for the correct answer.
