Cloud Services
Sep 10, 2015 2:10AM PDT

Hello,

There are three types of cloud services

-Software as a Service (SaaS)
-Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
-Platform as a Service (PaaS)

For now, I'm using Google docs meaning I prefer to choose SaaS.
Google docs is one of the examples of SaaS applications.

I hope this could help.
Have a nice day!

Go with NuvolaLabs for cloud support
Sep 23, 2015 9:54PM PDT

I'd go with AWS. Reach out to NuvolaLabs (www.nuvolalabs.io) with questions. They can migrate your system to AWS or host your applications. They essentially offer an enterprise suite of cloud based solutions for much less than Rackspace or any other guy out there. They leverage AWS on the backside and provide a great service. I have a couple buddies that use them and like the hands on support - good luck getting that directly from Amazon Wink
