CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 96

A company has an in-house-developed application. The administrator wants to utilize cloud services for additional peak usage workloads. The application has a very unique stack of dependencies. Which of the following cloud service subscription types would BEST meet these requirements?

Answer options

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

Correct answer: D

Explanation

IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) is the best fit because it provides the flexibility to configure the underlying infrastructure to match the unique stack of dependencies of the application. PaaS, SaaS, and DBaaS offer more managed services that may not accommodate the specific requirements of a bespoke application as effectively as IaaS.
