Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is one of three main categories of cloud computing services (the other two are software as a service (SaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS)). Cloud computing lets organizations outsource their infrastructure needs to an external provider. The provider of IaaS houses and maintains computer infrastructure that clients can access remotely. Clients usually pay on a per-use or utility computing basis for this service.
