All of these really fall under "Computing as a Service." We just haven't heard that particular term from our customers, and have been trying to focus on getting the terminology straight between everyone. The long and short is that, for many organizations, some combination of infrastructure, platform, and software as a service will be used based off their requirements, maturity in each of those ares, and the level of risk they're willing to take to gain the benefits of one of those approaches.

It seems you're missing an important part. SaaS, iaaS, PaaS...what about Computing as a Service? We see CaaS as a combination of all the others. At the end of the day, that's what customers really want to talk about. Curious to get your thoughts. Good stuff! Good summary of Cloud Computing. It seems you’re missing an important part.
