Answer to Question 1

An organization that provides software as a service (SaaS) provides not only hardware infrastructure, but also an operating system and application programs as well. For example, Salesforce.com provides programs for customer and sales tracking as a service. The second category of cloud hosting is platform as a service (PaaS), whereby vendors provide hosted computers, an operating system, and possibly a DBMS. Microsoft Windows Azure, for example, provides servers installed with Windows Server. Customers of Windows Azure then add their own applications on top of the hosted platform. The third category of cloud hosting is infrastructure as a service (IaaS) that is the cloud hosting of a bare server computer or disk drive. Amazon EC2 provides bare servers, and its Simple Storage Server provides, in essence, an unlimited, reliable disk drive in the cloud.
