PaaS (Platform as a Service)

PaaS (Platform as a Service) is a cloud computing model where a provider offers a platform for developing, testing, and deploying applications. This includes the necessary infrastructure (servers, storage) as well as development tools like databases and programming environments.

How does PaaS work?

With PaaS, developers can focus on code and building applications without worrying about managing servers or complex technical configurations. The PaaS provider handles all infrastructure, updates, and security. Companies often pay based on usage, which allows for great flexibility.

Concrete example

For example, a startup wants to build a web application. Instead of buying servers and managing the infrastructure themselves, they can use a PaaS service like Heroku or Google App Engine. These platforms provide everything needed to create, deploy, and run the application. The development team can focus on improving the app rather than on technical infrastructure.

Why use PaaS?

PaaS is especially useful for startups and companies that want to accelerate product development without worrying about infrastructure. It reduces upfront costs and simplifies technical management, while offering powerful development tools. This allows companies to launch products faster and easily adapt to growth.
