The primary strength of Bahga and Madisetti’s work lies in its structural approach to the subject matter. The book begins by grounding the reader in the essentials—tracing the evolution of computing from mainframes to the cloud, and clearly defining the core service models: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS).
