hardware), and data storage space. ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
- highest level of control over your IT resources
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
- most similar to existing IT resources that most IT departments are familiar with today
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
underlying infrastructure (usually hardware and operating systems) and enable you to focus ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
on the deployment and management of your applications
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
SaaS (Software as a Service) - correct answer✔✔provides you with a completed product that
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
the service provider runs and manages.
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
- usually refers to end-user applications
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
the application run in the cloud.
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
- have either been created in the cloud or have been migrated from an existing

the cloud. ||\\//||
- most common is between cloud and existing on-premises infrastructure
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
- enables an organization to extend and grow their infrastructure into the cloud while
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
connecting resources to internal systems ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

investing in data centers) ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
2. Benefit from massive economies of scale (usage from lots of customers in the cloud
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
allows AWS to achieve higher economies of scale, which translates to lower pay-as-you-go

prices)
3. Stop guessing capacity (you can access as little or as much as you need... dont risk buying
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
too much or too little capacity)
