    AZ-900 · Question 09 · Domain 1.3: Cloud Service Types

    Which cloud service model provides you with the highest level of control and flexibility over the operating system and installed software?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Software as a Service (SaaS)

    B.

    Platform as a Service (PaaS)

    C.

    Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

    D.

    Function as a Service (FaaS)

    How to approach this question

    Identify the service model that is closest to managing physical hardware.

    Full Answer

    C.Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)✓ Correct
    Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) gives you the most control. You rent IT infrastructure—servers and virtual machines (VMs), storage, networks, operating systems—from a cloud provider on a pay-as-you-go basis.

    Common mistakes

    Choosing PaaS. While PaaS gives control over the application, it does not give control over the underlying operating system.
