Microsoft 365 Fundamentals — Question 214

Your company is planning to migrate to Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365.
You are required to identify a cloud service that allows for the deployment of a Linux virtual machine.
Which of the following is the model you should choose?

Answer options

• A. Software as a Service (SaaS)
• B. Platform as a Service (PaaS)
• C. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
• D. Container as a Service (CaaS)

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), as it provides the necessary resources for deploying and managing virtual machines, including Linux. Options A and B do not offer the flexibility required for VM deployment, as SaaS provides software solutions and PaaS is focused on application development platforms. D, Container as a Service (CaaS), primarily deals with containerized applications rather than traditional virtual machines.
