- candeira 15y agoI know you are joking, but the idea is that different levels of service are given by different people, and they may be layered one on top of another. I believe the term used these days is IaaS, Infrastructure as a Service. Amazon EC2 would be IaaS. Heroku or DotCloud would be PaaS. A PaaS company can have their infrastructure provided by an IaaS company. It's Turtles as a Service all the way down.
