Briefly describe IaaS. Give an example of how it might be used.

What will be an ideal response?

Infrastructure as a service (IaaS), or hosted infrastructure, allows companies to use a vendor's storage or even entire virtual servers as needed. Traditionally, if a company needs another 100 GB of storage to house a new database, it has to buy a new hard drive-assuming the server can accommodate a new hard drive. By using IaaS, the company simply pays for another 100 GB of space without worrying about how that space is actually provided.
