Explanation

Platform as a Service (PaaS) provides a managed environment where developers can build, deploy, and scale custom applications without provisioning or managing the underlying infrastructure (servers, networking, OS). The cloud provider handles the platform layer. IaaS provides raw infrastructure (VMs, storage, networking) that the organization must still manage. SaaS delivers fully built software applications to end users. Network as a Service provides on-demand networking capabilities but is not the model for running custom applications.
