A county must lift a legacy licensing server that needs a full Windows operating system the county controls. Which cloud service type fits that requirement?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
If you still need the full OS keys in your pocket, you are in IaaS territory — think renting the virtual machine and running Windows yourself. SaaS is the finished app in a browser; PaaS lifts the OS burden on purpose. A CDN is not a licensing server.
Full Explanation
IaaS provides virtualized compute, storage, and networking while the customer manages the guest operating system and applications — the right fit for a legacy licensing server that requires OS control. SaaS delivers complete applications without OS access. PaaS abstracts the OS/runtime so customers focus on apps and data, which conflicts with needing custom full-OS control.
