CaaS vs. Other Cloud Service Models

CaaS occupies a strategic middle ground in the cloud computing stack, offering a balance of control and simplicity.

Service Model What You Manage What Nexqloud Manages Ideal For
IaaS (Infrastructure) OS, Runtime, Apps, Data Virtualization, Servers, Storage, Networking Full control over the OS; "lift-and-shift" migrations.
CaaS (Containers) Application, Data, Container Configuration Kubernetes Control Plane, OS, Servers, Storage, Networking Modern, containerized applications requiring orchestration, scalability, and portability.
PaaS (Platform) Application Code, Data Runtime, Middleware, OS, Infrastructure Maximum developer productivity; just deploy code.
Serverless (FaaS) Individual Function Code Everything else Event-driven, stateless functions with minimal overhead.
