What is a "platform-as-a-service"?
Platform as a service (PaaS) is a cloud computing model that delivers applications over the Internet. In a PaaS model, a cloud provider delivers hardware and software tools to its users as a service.[1]
In e-publishing terms, 123Library's CloudPublish products provide publishers with the platform (i.e., management tools, hardware, software) to publish ebooks online, without the need to invest in developing that platform themselves. Thus, the e-publishing platform is provided "as a service".
