Correct Answer: C

Explanation

A hosted medical records service is an example of the SaaS, or software-as-a-service, model. The customer cannot choose variables such as vCPU or RAM. The cloud provider is responsible for the delivery of the software, maintenance of the OS, and maintenance of the hardware. An example of platform-as-a-service (PaaS) would be Google App Engine or Microsoft Azure, where code could be executed on a virtual stack of equipment (programming platform). An example of infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) is Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Compute (EC2), where a VM can be started up with virtual network services with only a credit card and you are billed periodically. An example of backup-as-a-service (BaaS) is Microsoft Azure cloud backup or Google Drive, just to name a couple.
