CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1201) — Question 109

A company decides to subscribe to a cloud service to provide email for its employees. Which of the following cloud models is the company adopting?

Answer options

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

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, SaaS (Software as a Service), because email services delivered through the cloud are typically classified under this model, where the provider hosts and manages the software. The other options, such as PaaS (Platform as a Service), IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), and DaaS (Desktop as a Service), do not specifically pertain to software applications like email, making them incorrect in this context.
