Exam SY0-501 topic 1 question 679 discussion

This was on my exam (5 Aug 2020). As I said above, I chose B.

A company wishes to move all of its services and applications to a cloud provider, means it not the full infrastructure. Customer can have full control over the Software (such as services and application)

In SaaS model company doesn't have control over deployment

Is there any admins who can update the correct answers on here or what?

As opposed to SaaS or PaaS, IaaS clients are responsible for managing aspects such as applications, runtime, OSes, middleware, and data. However, providers of the IaaS manage the servers, hard drives, networking, virtualization, and storage. Some providers even offer more services beyond the virtualization layer, such as databases or message queuing.

ANSWER IS IAAS IaaS delivers cloud computing infrastructure, including servers, network, operating systems, and storage, through virtualization technology. These cloud servers are typically provided to the organization through a dashboard or an API, giving IaaS clients complete control over the entire infrastructure.Jun 15, 2019

The third service model specified by NIST, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), is defined as The capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, and deployed applications; and possible limited control of select networking components

also, I looked in both test banks and it says SaaS

But if CompTIA says that is SaaS then: THIS IS WHY ON MY OPENION. Software as a Service foregoes the traditional method of selling a perpetual software license to end users and requiring them to host, run and manage the program they just bought. In place of this method, SaaS vendors host the application on their own servers, make it available through the web and charge for the service of accessing and using the solution. See more on blog.capterra.com SaaS can eliminate your need to maintain your IT realm, giving you more time and flexibility to establish other areas of your business such as HR and marketing. To ensure that you are up to date with modern business practices, adopting SaaS applications can allow you to communicate seamlessly with vendors, subcontractors and consumers. This will expand your business touchpoints.

My dad works for Microsoft and he looked at this question and said that IaaS is correct.

Why is the answer A (Software as a Service) since the company has full control of all its services? The company hired only the Infrastructure of the cloud provide and the answer should be B (Infrastructure as a Service).

Answer is B. Iaas according to Professor Messer's 601 video on IaaS

This is terrible: IaaS - "Self-service". Pick B, if you are wrong, that is the hill you die on. Live with the result

A is correct

IaaS Characteristics Characteristics that define IaaS include: Resources are available as a service Cost varies depending on consumption Services are highly scalable Multiple users on a single piece of hardware Organization retain complete control of the infrastructure Dynamic and flexible

A is the correct answer. It says "services" and these are software. Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is a means of provisioning IT resources such as servers, load balancers, and storage area network (SAN) components quickly. Software as a service (SaaS) is a different model of provisioning software applications.

"provisions of its services to its users" means as a SaaS to its users , so, A
