Cloud Computing Models

1. IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service)

IaaS is one of the most important cloud computing models that provides you with networking hardware over the Internet. These resources are provided to you through virtualization. This means that you can log in to an IaaS platform to use virtual machines (VM) to install an OS or software and run databases. This VM can work as a virtual data center.
