CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 61

A technician wants to set up a virtual machine in a public cloud environment.
Which of the following cloud models should the technician use?

Answer options

• A. IaaS
• B. SaaS
• C. PaaS
• D. DBaaS

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), as it provides the necessary resources for creating and managing virtual machines. The other options, SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and DBaaS (Database as a Service), do not offer the direct infrastructure support needed for VM setup.
