I believe most analysts consider the storage tier part of "Infrastructure" in
IaaS. Same goes for virtual network appliances.

I completely agree with your analysis, but want to add one point.
One of the reasons why IaaS is easier to adopt than PaaS is that the vendor
lock-in is lower. Porting a virtual machine between providers is not an easy
problem, but is well understood. PaaS lock-in is much greater, as most PaaS

Interesting insight! Thank you! For the record it wasn't doing that when
I finally figured out the problem. I was getting the expected hashes when
I cut the number of requests down. However it's possible that this was
only because I eliminated the timeout so it was executing in real time. I

Thanks for the explanation. I think if we're to make good decisions
regarding these ideas and technologies, they have to be well understood
first.

See I would call them omewhere between IaaS and SaaS.
yes there is software you can use to interact with them, but by that
measure so is EC2, you can control it from the AWS Management Console, plus
you can always use SSH.
On the otherhand you can interact exclusively through the APIs as well.

I would actually lump S3 and Glacier under SaaS. Its a service thats
provided for you with software on the backend to manage it all. All S3 and
Glacier really are is a set of up API(s) you can use to access the service.

Don't forget Storage as a Service, S3 & Glacier for example. That doesn't

In my opinion, 'the cloud' is a buzz-word, and regarding it, people act
accordingly. Buzz-words are meant to diminish understanding of
something, not enhance it. Therefore, a lot of places don't weigh the
benefits and drawbacks of what is essentially a move to another hosting
provider.

In case any of you are considering migrating/developing new services on a

scalability here.

charges for time for the architecture/design stage.
