CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 14
A company needs to deploy its own code directly in the cloud without provisioning additional infrastructure. Which of the following is the best cloud service model for the company to use?
Answer options
- A. PaaS
- B. SaaS
- C. IaaS
- D. XaaS
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The best option for deploying code without additional infrastructure is PaaS (Platform as a Service), as it offers a platform for developers to build and deploy applications directly. SaaS (Software as a Service) provides software over the internet but doesn't allow for custom code deployment. IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) involves managing infrastructure, which the company wants to avoid. XaaS (Anything as a Service) is a broad term that doesn't specifically address the needs of deploying code.
