Explanation

PaaS (Platform as a Service) describes a cloud model where developers deploy and run applications on a managed platform that includes runtime environments, databases, and middleware - without managing the underlying infrastructure. A web application hosted on a multi-tenant cloud server with a cloud-hosted database is the classic PaaS scenario (e.g., Google App Engine, Azure App Service). IaaS (A) provides raw compute, storage, and networking resources that the customer manages themselves. SaaS (C) refers to end-user software delivered over the internet (e.g., Gmail, Salesforce) where users consume the application, not deploy it. DaaS (D) is Desktop as a Service, which delivers virtual desktops to users.
