Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals — Question 150

You plan to move resources to the cloud.

You are evaluating the use of Infrastructure as a service (IaaS), Platform as a service (PaaS), and Software as a service (SaaS) cloud models.

You plan to manage only the data, user accounts, and user devices for a cloud-based app.

Which cloud model will you use?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, SaaS, because it allows users to manage their data and accounts without dealing with the underlying infrastructure or platform. In contrast, PaaS and IaaS require more management responsibilities, such as application development and infrastructure maintenance, which are not part of the user's scope in this case.
