Describe possible services that can be achieved through infrastructure as a service (IaaS)?

  •  Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one of the three fundamental service models of cloud computing alongside Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS). Infrastructure as a Service is a provision model in which an organization outsources the equipment used to support operations, including storage, hardware, servers, and networking components. 
  • The service provider owns the equipment and is responsible for housing, running, and maintaining it. The client typically pays on a per-use basis. Clients are able to self-provision this infrastructure, using a Web-based graphical user interface that serves as an IT operations management console for the overall environment. API access to the infrastructure may also be offered as an option.
  • IaaS is usually seen to provide a standardized virtual server. The consumer takes responsibility for the configuration and operations of the guest Operating System (OS), software, and Database (DB). Compute capabilities (such as performance, bandwidth, and storage access) are also standardized
