Organizations often choose a combination of these models based on their specific requirements and preferences.

Infrastructure as a Service - IaaS
in IaaS, the cloud provider offers virtualized computing resources over the internet. These resources include virtual machines, storage, and networking. Users can deploy and manage their own operating systems, applications, and middleware, while the cloud provider manages the underlying infrastructure.
Example providers: Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2, Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines
Platform as a Service - PaaS
PaaS provides a platform allowing customers to develop, run, and manage applications without dealing with the complexity of infrastructure. It typically includes development tools, middleware, database management systems, and other necessary components
