Cloud Computing: Terms and what they mean - Post 1

You can ask me what they mean and we can discuss further.

- PaaS: Platform as a Service
- SaaS: Software as a Service
- IaaS: Infrastructure as a Service
- DCaaS: Data Center as a Service
- Messaging as a Service: Example: Self-service MMX queues and topics
MMX, Messaging Multiplexer will get a message from a queue and output it to one or more queues. Context information is maintained across the message.
How is this relevant in cloud computing?. When VDC is deployed and Saas is implemented, MaaS is needed across VDC's to work.
- Schema as a Service: Example: Self-service Oracle DB schema
Today to create tables (schema) in Oracle DB, we need to approach DB architects. Schema as a Service is again a self service mechanism or can say as automated mechanism to create schema in VDC environment.
