What is Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and how does it work?

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a cloud computing model that provides virtualized computing resources over the internet. These resources typically include servers, storage, and networking. Businesses rent these resources from a provider according to their needs. They may do so on a committed or subscription basis or opt for on-demand pricing.

Since IaaS is a virtual service, users can scale capacity up or down instantly, deploy applications, and manage workloads through a web-based interface or API. The provider handles hardware maintenance, security, and uptime, while customers focus on configuring and managing their operating systems and applications.

IaaS delivers flexibility, cost efficiency, and high availability for dynamic, infrastructure-heavy workloads.
