What is IaaS?

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a cloud computing service that provides on-demand access to fundamental computing resources—servers, networking, storage, and virtualization—over the internet. Instead of owning and maintaining physical data centers, organizations can rent these resources from a cloud provider. IaaS is commonly used for hosting websites, storing data, testing and development, backup and recovery, and high-performance computing.
