What is PaaS?
Platform as a Service - cloud services that let you deploy apps without managing servers
Why It Matters
PaaS handles infrastructure so you can focus on building your application
Real-World Example
Vercel and Heroku are PaaS providers where you just push code and they handle deployment
“Understanding terms like PaaS matters because it helps you have better conversations with developers and make smarter decisions about your software. You do not need to be technical. You just need to know enough to ask the right questions.”
