Explanation

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) delivers fundamental computing resources - virtual machines (compute), storage, and networking - over the internet on a pay-as-you-go basis. The customer manages the OS, middleware, and applications; the provider manages the physical hardware. Examples include AWS EC2, Azure Virtual Machines, and Google Compute Engine. Software as a Service (SaaS) (A) delivers fully managed applications (e.g., Gmail, Salesforce). Data as a Service (DaaS) (C) provides data on demand, typically via APIs. Platform as a Service (PaaS) (D) provides a managed platform for developing and deploying applications without managing the underlying infrastructure.
