So NNY
Okay, this one is a pain the a$$. My initial though was NNY but that is wrong. I'd go with YNY now. Somebody will have to do a better explanation on why the second is Yes for me to change that answer.
1. Azure Files is an example of infrastructure as a service. We can see this by following this link:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/overview/what-is-azure/iaas/?OCID=AID2200277_SEM_4f474f37105d10e7fe342e7811e71afe:G:s&ef_id=4f474f37105d10e7fe342e7811e71afe:G:s&msclkid=4f474f37105d10e7fe342e7811e71afe#products
And going to the storage services link. We can see that yes, Azure Files is considered as Infrastructure as a Service.
I am sticking with N as DNS server on an AZURE VM is Infrasturcture. You can google and you'll see references also to DNS set up as IaaS. You google DNS PaaS and you get zero, zilch.
Microsoft Intune is totally Software as a Service. If you studied for the Microsoft 365 Fundamentals then this a give me.
And for the second see this page: https://www.poweradmin.com/blog/dns-in-the-cloud-solid-or-not/#:~:text=DNS%20in%20the%20cloud%20is,a%20Service%20(IaaS)%20solution.
Stating: "DNS in the cloud is generally considered to be an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) solution."
Also, as with many other questions, anything "on an Azure VM" indicates that you need to deploy this VM, otherwise it won't be mentioned, so that alone indicates IaaS. DNS, like Intune, as standalone services (no hint about background infrastructure) are SaaS
Azure Blob Storage, Azure Files, Azure Table Storage, and Azure Queue Storage: These are typically considered PaaS offerings because they provide a managed service
Azure File is an example of IAAS.
Referecne: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-files-planning#management-concepts
There are two main types of storage accounts you will use for Azure Files deployments:
General purpose version 2 (GPv2) storage accounts and FileStorage storage accounts.
Both are part of IAAS.
Also if you check the usage of Azure files it has Lift and Shift of appliaction, use as a disk drive.
So the usage is like a hard disk which can be considered as IAAS.
The answer is NNY CoPilot: Nope, Azure Files is a Platform as a Service (PaaS)., Nope, a DNS Server running on an Azure VM would be considered Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Yes, Microsoft Intune is a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution
It should be NNY
CoPilot: Microsoft SQL Server 2019 installed on a VM falls under Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). DNS Server running on an Azure VM would be considered Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS),
* Azure Files is part of Microsoft Azure's Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering. So first is a NO
* An AZURE VM (it does not matter what is installed in it) is always Iaas. So The second one is a NO
* SaaS (software as a service) refers to software located in the cloud. With this type of software, users access it through the internet, not through installed software. This means that Microsoft Intune is a SaaS software.. So the last one is a YES
Hence: NO, NO, YES
Azure Files is an example of IaaS.
False – Azure Files is an example of a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering. It provides fully managed file shares that you can access via the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol, without managing the underlying infrastructure.
A DNS server that runs on an Azure VM is an example of PaaS.
False – A DNS server running on an Azure Virtual Machine (VM) is an example of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) because you are responsible for managing the virtual machine, including the installation and management of the DNS server software.
Microsoft Intune is an example of SaaS.
True – Microsoft Intune is a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution. It is a cloud-based service for managing devices, providing mobile device management (MDM), mobile application management (MAM), and PC management without the need for infrastructure management.
Answer is NNY
why Azure files is PAAS and not IAAS
Fully managed. Azure file shares can be created without the need to manage hardware or an OS. This means you don't have to deal with patching the server OS with critical security upgrades or replacing faulty hard disks.

Key benefits section
Azure Files is actually an example of Platform as a Service (PaaS), not Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
Azure Files provides fully managed file shares that can be accessed over industry-standard protocols like SMB (Server Message Block) and NFS (Network File System). Since it abstracts away the underlying infrastructure (e.g., storage hardware, networking, operating system, etc.), users don't have to manage these aspects, which is characteristic of PaaS offerings. Instead, users interact with the service at a higher level, simply storing and accessing files without worrying about the details of managing the underlying infrastructure.
In contrast, IaaS would provide more control over the underlying infrastructure, such as virtual machines or raw storage resources.
