20. What is Infrastructure as a Service?
“IaaS, put simply, is data centre
capacity on demand. Whether your
organisation wants short term
capacity for specific projects,
or wants to remove the cost and
burden of managing server
infrastructure, IaaS allows you
to turn on the tap to extra
capacity fast”
