This document provides an overview of different cloud computing platforms including packaged software, infrastructure as a service, and platform as a service. It defines the key characteristics of each type of platform and who manages different layers such as applications, data, runtimes, and middleware. The document also includes diagrams illustrating where responsibilities lie between vendors and customers for management across various cloud platform models.
