Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is a cloud computing service model where a cloud services vendor provides computing resources such as storage, network, servers, and virtualization (which emulates computer hardware).
Network-as-a-Service(NaaS) is a term used to describe the provision of computer networking technology to an organisation as an integrated service. It is related to terms like Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) , Platform as a Service (PaaS) , Software as a Service (SaaS) , and Software-Defined Networking (SDN) .
The focus was on Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) based offerings but the interface can be extended to support Platform and Software as a Service offerings [3] as well. IaaS is one of three primary segments of the cloud computing industry in which compute, storage and network resources are provided as services.
Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) refers to online services that provide high-level APIs used to abstract various low-level details of underlying network infrastructure like physical computing resources, location, data partitioning, scaling, security, backup, etc.
Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is the most basic form of cloud computing, where infrastructure resources—such as physical computers—are not owned by the user but instead leased from a cloud provider. As a result, infrastructure resources can be increased rapidly, instead of waiting weeks for computers to ship and set up.
Network-as-a-Service(NaaS) is a term used to describe the provision of computer networking technology to an organisation as an integrated service. It is related to terms like Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), and Software-Defined Networking (SDN).
Infrastructure as a service is taking the physical hardware and going completely virtual (e.g. all servers, networks, storage, and system management all existing in the cloud). This is the equivalent to infrastructure and hardware in the traditional (non-cloud computing) method running in the cloud.
Converged infrastructure can serve as an enabling platform for private and public cloud computing services, including infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS) offerings. Several characteristics make converged infrastructure well suited to cloud deployments.
