You plan to provision Infrastructure as a Service (laaS) resources in Azure.
Which resource is an example of laaS?
A) An Azure web app.
B) An Azure virtual machine.
C) An Azure logic app.
D) An Azure SQL database.
Solution
Correct answer: B) An Azure virtual machine.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a cloud computing service model where the cloud provider manages the underlying infrastructure (servers, storage, networking) and the user is responsible for managing the operating system, applications, and data.
In Azure, an example of an IaaS resource is an Azure Virtual Machine (VM). With an Azure VM, the user has control over the operating system, applications, and data, while Azure manages the underlying hardware and infrastructure.
The other options provided are not examples of IaaS:
An Azure web app is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering, where the cloud provider manages the underlying infrastructure and the user focuses on deploying and managing the application.
An Azure logic app is a PaaS offering for building and running automated workflows.
An Azure SQL database is a Database as a Service (DBaaS) offering, where the cloud provider manages the database infrastructure and the user focuses on managing the data and database-related tasks.
