Google Cloud Digital Leader — Question 161

An organization wants to access a software application from a cloud vendor without the need to manage their own servers or write their own code.

Which service model does this represent?

Answer options

• A. Infrastructure as a service
• B. Platform as a service
• C. Software as a service
• D. Functions as a service

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Software as a Service (SaaS) because it allows users to access applications over the internet without needing to manage the underlying infrastructure or code. Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and Platform as a service (PaaS) require more management and development effort, while Functions as a service (FaaS) is focused on executing code in response to events.
