What is Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)?

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a cloud computing service that provides on-demand access to fundamental computing resources – servers, storage, networking – over the internet. Instead of purchasing and managing their own infrastructure, businesses can rent these resources from a cloud provider on a pay-as-you-go basis. Common uses include hosting websites and applications, data storage, backup and recovery, testing and development, and high-performance computing.
