Answer Correct answer: A — Yes, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is the appropriate solution for deploying and managing Azure Virtual Machines.

Note: The question is included in a number of questions that depicts the identical set-up. However, every question has a distinctive result. Establish if the solution satisfies the requirements. You are tasked with deploying Azure virtual machines for your company. You need to make use of the appropriate cloud deployment solution. Solution: You should make use of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Does the solution meet the goal?

  1. Yes Correct Answer
  2. No

Community Insight

The question tests whether you recognize that virtual machines are provisioned via IaaS, not PaaS or SaaS, by asking if using IaaS meets the deployment goal.

This question tests the classification of Azure Virtual Machines within cloud service models. The correct solution is A (Yes), as deploying VMs is a core function of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).

Learners often confuse IaaS with Platform as a Service (PaaS) by focusing on managed services rather than the underlying infrastructure control required for custom VM management.

Deploying Virtual Machines requires IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), where you manage the OS, runtime, and applications. So, IaaS is correct because it lets you directly create and manage virtual machines.

IaaS is one of the cloud service models where: Microsoft provides the hardware (servers, storage, network) You manage the virtual machine (OS, apps, etc.) Azure lets you create virtual machines through IaaS.

The answer is A. Yes Using Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is the appropriate solution for deploying Azure virtual machines. IaaS provides you with the flexibility to create, manage, and configure virtual machines in the cloud while still maintaining control over the underlying infrastructure, including operating systems, networking, and storage. This option aligns with the goal of deploying Azure virtual machines for your company.

Answer : A IaaS - Shared Responsibility Model In an on-premises environment, you're responsible for everything. As you move to infrastructure as a service (IaaS), then to platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS), your cloud provider will take on more of this responsibility. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/azure-well-architected-introduction/2-pillars https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/azure-well-architected-introduction/media/cloud-responsibility-model.png

Expert Analysis

Why the Answer Is Correct

Azure Virtual Machines are the quintessential example of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). In an IaaS model, Microsoft provides the physical hardware, networking, and storage resources, while the customer retains control over the operating system, applications, and middleware. Since the goal is to deploy and manage these virtual machines, selecting IaaS is the appropriate and correct solution.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option B (No) is incorrect because there is no other primary service model that better fits the description of deploying raw virtual machines. While PaaS offers managed environments, it abstracts away the VM layer for most use cases, whereas IaaS explicitly provides the VM construct.

Community Comment Notes

The community consensus strongly supports Option A. As user Stephanyjempot noted, "Virtual Machines and Azure storage accounts is IaaS," highlighting the direct link between VMs and this service tier. Another commenter, Kahla, clarified that in IaaS, "Microsoft provides the hardware... You manage the virtual machine," which accurately describes the responsibility split for Azure VMs.

Exam Strategy

Memorize the three main cloud service models: IaaS (infrastructure like VMs), PaaS (platform like App Service), and SaaS (software like Office 365). When you see 'Virtual Machine' or 'OS management,' immediately think IaaS.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Azure Storage Account considered IaaS?

No, Azure Storage Accounts are generally classified under Platform as a Service (PaaS) because they provide managed data storage services without requiring OS management.

What do you manage in Azure IaaS?

In IaaS, you manage the operating system, installed applications, data, and configurations, while Microsoft manages the underlying physical hardware and virtualization layer.
