    AZ-900 · Question 13 · Domain 1.3: Describe Cloud Service Types

    Which cloud service type gives you the most control over the underlying operating system and software configuration?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

    B.

    Platform as a Service (PaaS)

    C.

    Software as a Service (SaaS)

    D.

    Serverless Computing

    How to approach this question

    Consider the shared responsibility model. Which model puts the most responsibility (and therefore control) on the customer?

    Full Answer

    A.Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)✓ Correct
    Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provides the maximum amount of control. You are renting the virtual hardware, but you have full administrative access to install and configure the operating system and any software you choose.

    Common mistakes

    Thinking PaaS gives more control because it's for developers. PaaS actually restricts OS-level control to make development easier.
