IAAS, PAAS, SAAS, On-Prem. Let's explain these with the brand new Pizza as a Service


The Cloud is a great tool that allows you to scale up very quickly.
But all is not so gentle in the world of the Cloud. 🌩

Indeed, there are many possibilities for using a Cloud solution. ☁️

You can decide to be in charge of absolutely nothing.
Just manage the application.
Just to manage the machines.
Or manage everything. And in this case, it's not really Cloud for me anymore.

This diversity of operation is accompanied by a complicated nomenclature such as On-Prem, IaaS, PaaS or SaaS.

It is complicated to clearly understand what the differences are between these solutions. 🤔
Where does the first end, where the second begins.

To simplify all this, I decided to cook up a little video for you that explains this concept through the example of making and eating a pizza. 🍕
Let's call it "Pizza as a Service" and see how it will help us understand the concept of cloud solutions. 📺
