By leveraging Platform as a Service (PaaS), you may avoid the expense and hassle of buying and managing software licences, the middleware and underlying infrastructure for your applications, container orchestrators like Kubernetes, and other resources. The software and services you develop are within your control; the cloud service provider is in charge of everything else.
The following examples show how platform as a service may be applied to all three kinds of cloud computing:
Private cloud: The technology upon which the development framework is based has been reserved solely for the usage of a single entity with many users. The infrastructure may be situated on- or off-site and owned, managed, and controlled by the business, a third party, or a combination of the two.
Public Cloud: The software architecture is based on technology that is readily available for usage by numerous businesses, or "public cloud" (also known as a multi-tenant model). The infrastructure may be owned, managed, and run by a business, academic institution, governmental agency, or any combination of the three. It is situated on the grounds of the cloud provider.
Hybrid cloud: The development platform is built using both public and private clouds. Although the two cloud models are different from one another, they are connected by standardised or proprietary technology that permits the transfer of data and applications. Hybrid clouds are rarely used by PaaS solutions.
