  • Deploying Applications
    • A common option for running workloads on a cloud is to move up a level from accessing Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offerings to Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offerings, where the cloud provider delivers a managed platform to host your workloads. Unlike the IaaS offerings, with PaaS, you don’t worry about the underlying hardware, networking, storage, or operating system level issues. You concentrate on the application functionality and leave all the lower-level issues to the cloud provider to manage.
