Cloud Computing: Platform as a service (PaaS)
PaaS is a category of cloud computing services that provides a platform allowing customers to develop and deploy applications without the complexity of building and maintaining the computing infrastructure typically associated with developing and launching an app.
Cloud Foundry, Heroku, Now, Surge, Netlify, Google Firebase, Google App Engine, and AWS EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) are all examples of cloud application platforms we might use in 281.
