Explanation
In the Software as a Service (SaaS) model, the cloud provider manages and is responsible for virtually everything: physical infrastructure, networking, servers, operating systems, middleware, runtime, and the application itself. The customer is only responsible for their own data and user access management. In contrast, IaaS gives the customer the most infrastructure responsibility, PaaS sits in the middle (customer manages applications and data), and FaaS/serverless also abstracts infrastructure but SaaS offers the lowest customer infrastructure responsibility of the listed options.
