An organization wants to lease the resources they need for their customized servers from a cloud provider on a pay-as-you-go basis, instead of paying one time for hardware.
C. Infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is the model where the cloud provider offers computing resources such as virtual machines, storage, and networking on a pay-as-you-go basis. This enables organizations to lease the hardware and infrastructure resources they need without upfront capital investment.
With IaaS, the organization can scale resources up or down as needed, allowing them to avoid paying for hardware and only pay for what they use.
A (Incorrect). Hybrid cloud:
A hybrid cloud is an IT architecture that combines on-premises infrastructure with public and private cloud resources. While this might involve IaaS, hybrid cloud itself is a deployment model, not a service model.
B (Incorrect). Software as a service (SaaS):
SaaS provides fully managed applications hosted by the cloud provider. The organization does not manage infrastructure or customization but simply uses software applications over the internet.
D (Incorrect). Platform as a service (PaaS):
PaaS provides a platform that allows developers to build, deploy, and manage applications without dealing with underlying infrastructure. While it involves cloud resources, it's more focused on development and deployment than simply leasing hardware resources.
