A company wants to adopt a cloud-based productivity suite. They have a limited IT staff and want to avoid managing servers. They also need to ensure that their data is stored in a specific geographic region to meet regulatory requirements. Which approach is most appropriate?

Use SaaS such as Microsoft 365, selecting a data center region that meets the requirement.

Use any cloud service, because data residency is not a compliance concern.

Use PaaS to build a custom productivity suite in the required region.

Use IaaS to deploy their own productivity suite in the required region.

Which scenario is a typical use case for Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)?

Running a web-based email service for employees

Using a cloud-based customer relationship management (CRM) application

Hosting a website on a virtual server where the company installs and configures the web server software

Developing a mobile app using a managed database and authentication service

A company is migrating a legacy application that requires a specific version of Windows Server and a custom network topology. The application is not compatible with a managed platform. The IT team has limited experience with cloud infrastructure but is willing to learn. Which cloud service model should they choose, and what is the primary trade-off?

SaaS, because it is the easiest to deploy but offers limited customization.

DaaS, because it provides virtual desktops with full control.

IaaS, because it provides the required control but requires the team to manage the OS and network.

PaaS, because it provides the most flexibility but requires more management than SaaS.
