What is Infrastructure as a Service?

Public IaaS

IaaS is the fastest growing area of cloud computing

$207 billion

The de�nition of infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is pretty simple. You rent cloud infrastructure—servers, storage and networking— on demand, in a pay-as-you-go model.

Since you don't need to invest in your own hardware, IaaS is perfect for start-ups or businesses testing out

a new idea.

Also, since the infrastructure scales on demand, it's great for workloads that fluctuate rapidly.

Your business rents infrastructure from the cloud provider, and accesses that infrastructure over the Internet, in order to create or use applications.

Networking Servers

Storage Virtualization

Enterprise public cloud spending is expected to reach

But some workloads require an advanced solution. Managed IaaS is suited for large enterprises running production workloads on existing infrastructure.

Common public IaaS workloads: Dev/test, Website hosting, Storage, Simple application development
