Case Assignment
Strategic Information Technology Systems
Cloud computing has become a common term. In this assignment, we will address three types of cloud computing. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provides virtualized computing resources for firms so they do not have to maintain the computer servers in the business. Software as a Service (SaaS) allows firms to use software through a license agreement where it is hosted on the cloud. Platform as a Service (PaaS) provides a development platform to build software service and applications on cloud-based servers.
Assignment Expectations
Identify examples of IaaS, Saas, and PaaS and an example of a firm using each type of service. Describe how each service is used in a firm, providing a summary of the benefits of the service. Also, include links to websites to support your discussion examples. This should take 4 to 5 pages.
