因为这个问题有很多更好的定义。这里我想再举几个例子:

IaaS

AWS EC2 Rackspace 谷歌计算引擎(GCE) 数字海洋 Magento 1企业版 甲骨文云 Vultr

PaaS

AWS弹性豆茎 Heroku Windows Azure Force.com OpenShift Apache Stratos Magento商业云

SaaS

谷歌应用程序 Salesforce Dropbox MailChimp的 ZenDesk DocuSign 松弛 Hubspot的 思科 网讯 同意 进行交流

如果你是一个简单的客户，想要使用某个软件，但手头什么也没有，那么你就使用SaaS。

当你有一个自己开发的软件，但你想在一个公共平台上部署和运行，那么你就使用PaaS。

当你已经准备好了软件和平台，但还想让硬件运行时，你就可以使用IaaS。

我分享我的经验以及NIST的标准定义。我是产品公司的开发人员，我们拥有数据库和客户端(生态系统)。在许多清晰的图片旁边，由于许多参与者(NIST定义的5)和事物与预测不同，混淆出现了。

对于IaaS和裸金属部署，我们出售许可证和包，可以从CD或FTP服务器(rpm)获得。代码经过编译、测试和交付。在这里，我们的客户向我们支付(许可证成本)和/或向云提供商支付实例费用。

我们与云供应商(技术合作伙伴)合作，通过市场销售我们的产品。

通常我们在PaaS的情况下提供图像(ami,vhd等)+一些(云形成模板或ARM模板等)。我们有Jenkins管道将它们放在市场上(基于版本)。这里有一些技能，开发人员可以登录到实例并操作软件(例如，在数据库实例启动后登录并完全删除软件，使它看起来像EC2实例)

在SaaS的情况下，我们的Jenkins管道将直接部署(无论是web应用程序，azure/lambda函数)。开发人员/终端用户对物理硬件的控制都不低。

下面是NIST定义的参与者，因为开发者(提供软件的技术公司)是云提供商的合作伙伴，开发者最好的匹配是云提供商。

下面的链接很好地解释了SaaS, PaaS和Iaas。 http://opensourceforgeeks.blogspot.in/2015/01/difference-between-saas-paas-and-iaas.html

简单来说:

IaaS，在这里，供应商向用户提供基础设施，用户获得硬件/虚拟化基础设施，存储和网络基础设施。

PaaS，在这里，供应商为用户提供平台，用户可以获得他们工作所需的所有东西，如操作系统、数据库、执行环境以及IaaS提供的环境。 所以pass是平台+ IaaS。

SaaS似乎是一个相当广泛的领域，供应商提供从基础设施到平台到软件的几乎所有东西。 所以SaaS是Iaas+PaaS加上不同的软件，如ms office，虚拟盒子等。

SaaS: Software as a Service Cloud application services or “Software as a Service” (SaaS) are probably the most popular form of cloud computing and are easy to use. SaaS uses the Web to deliver applications that are managed by a third-party vendor and whose interface is accessed on the clients’ side. Most SaaS applications can be run directly from a Web browser, without any downloads or installations required. SaaS eliminates the need to install and run applications on individual computers. With SaaS, it’s easy for enterprises to streamline their maintenance and support, because everything can be managed by vendors: applications, runtime, data, middleware, O/S, virtualization, servers, storage, and networking. Gmail is one famous example of an SaaS mail provider.

PaaS: Platform as a Service The most complex of the three, cloud platform services or “Platform as a Service” (PaaS) deliver computational resources through a platform. What developers gain with PaaS is a framework they can build upon to develop or customize applications. PaaS makes the development, testing, and deployment of applications quick, simple, and cost-effective, eliminating the need to buy the underlying layers of hardware and software. One comparison between SaaS vs. PaaS has to do with what aspects must be managed by users, rather than providers: With PaaS, vendors still manage runtime, middleware, O/S, virtualization, servers, storage, and networking, but users manage applications and data.

IaaS: Infrastructure as a Service Cloud infrastructure services, known as “Infrastructure as a Service” (IaaS), deliver computer infrastructure (such as a platform virtualization environment), storage, and networking. Instead of having to purchase software, servers, or network equipment, users can buy these as a fully outsourced service that is usually billed according to the amount of resources consumed. Basically, in exchange for a rental fee, a third party allows you to install a virtual server on their IT infrastructure. Compared to SaaS and PaaS, IaaS users are responsible for managing more: applications, data, runtime, middleware, and O/S. Vendors still manage virtualization, servers, hard drives, storage, and networking. What users gain with IaaS is infrastructure on top of which they can install any required platforms. Users are responsible for updating these if new versions are released.
