1. Find one common cloud computing term and gives its definition.

Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is a form of cloud computing that provides virtualized

computing resources over the internet. IaaS is one of the three main categories of cloud
computing services, alongside software as a service (SaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS).
In the IaaS model, the cloud provider manages IT infrastructures such as storage, server and
networking resources, and delivers them to subscriber organizations via virtual machines
accessible through the internet. IaaS can have many benefits for organizations, such as
potentially making workloads faster, easier, more flexible and more cost efficient.
IaaS architecture
In an IaaS service model, a cloud provider hosts the infrastructure components that are
traditionally present in an on-premises data center. This includes servers, storage and networking
hardware, as well as the virtualization or hypervisor layer.
