Aloft above the clouds
Modern telecommunication reaches millions of customers and business partners. As a result of ongoing digitalization, increasing mobility and the demand for everything-as-a-service, companies have shifted their focus from simple network operation to the customer and a service-oriented approach.
The characteristics of cloud services include autonomy and flexibility, meaning that customers can access services on an on-demand basis and turn them off when they are no longer needed. Cloud-based technology allows enterprises to access software, storage, computing and other IT infrastructure elements without the need for maintenance and upgrades. Another benefit of cloud computing is that smaller organizations have access to computing power, storage and business processes that were previously only available to large enterprises.
In general, a distinction is made between three service models:
- Software-as-a-Service (SaaS): a model for the sale of software, in which customers access software via the Internet
- Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS): a service model that provides an outsourced computing infrastructure to support business operations
- Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS): a concept that describes a computing platform that is rented or provided as an integrated solution, solution stack or service over an Internet connection
