Suggested Answer:
Box 1: No -
A PaaS solution does not provide access to the operating system. The Azure Web Apps service provides an environment for you to host your web applications.
Behind the scenes, the web apps are hosted on virtual machines running IIS. However, you have no direct access to the virtual machine, the operating system or
IIS.

Box 2: Yes -
A PaaS solution that hosts web apps in Azure does provide the ability to scale the platform automatically. This is known as autoscaling. Behind the scenes, the web apps are hosted on virtual machines running IIS. Autoscaling means adding more load balanced virtual machines to host the web apps.

Box 3: Yes -
PaaS provides a framework that developers can build upon to develop or customize cloud-based applications. PaaS development tools can cut the time it takes to code new apps with pre-coded application components built into the platform, such as workflow, directory services, security features, search and so on.

I think the answers are: No, Yes, No. PaaS does not provide professional services on add features to the applications! Anything related to the application is the responsibility of the customer in PaaS.

In my hopinion this refers to: Advantages of PaaS By delivering infrastructure as a service, PaaS offers the same advantages as IaaS. But its additional features—middleware, development tools, and other business tools—give you more advantages: Cut coding time. PaaS development tools can cut the time it takes to code new apps with pre-coded application components built into the platform, such as workflow, directory services, security features, search, and so on. Add development capabilities without adding staff. Platform as a Service components can give your development team new capabilities without your needing to add staff having the required skills. Develop for multiple platforms—including mobile—more easily. Some service providers give you development options for multiple platforms, such as computers, mobile devices, and browsers making cross-platform apps quicker and easier to develop.

Regarding the third question, it seems as if is referring to DevOps/GitHub feature of Web App Service, which provides the functionalty of "continous deployment". As per Microsoft: "Web App Service not only adds the power of Microsoft Azure to your application, such as security, load balancing and autoscaling. You can also take advantage of its DevOps capabilities, such as continuous deployment from Azure DevOps, GitHub, and other sources."

Answer is "No", "Yes", "No". As 1 and 2 are obvious for question 3 consider below: The statement is partially correct, but it has a misleading element. A platform as a service (PaaS) solution, such as Azure App Service, indeed hosts web apps and provides tools and services to streamline development and deployment processes. However, it does not inherently include professional development services to continuously add features to custom applications. PaaS solutions offer infrastructure, development frameworks, and other resources that enable developers to build, test, and deploy applications efficiently. It's up to organizations or developers themselves to add features or maintain custom applications. They might employ their own development team or outsource this work to professional developers—but that's not directly provided by the PaaS solution. To retain: " it does not inherently include professional development services", this is an add-on possibility!

NYN PaaS abstracts the underlying infrastructure, including the operating system, so you do not have full control over it. Instead, Azure manages it for you. PaaS solutions like Azure App Service support automatic scaling based on demand, making it easy to adjust resources dynamically. PaaS provides infrastructure and managed services for hosting applications, but does not include professional development services for feature updates. That responsibility remains with the development team.

YES to "3. Provides professional development services" suggests when you have PaaS you get a managed service provider behind the scenes pandering to your needs. Poorly phrased question as it is very easy to misinterpret.

Azure PaaS services, such as Azure App Service, Azure Functions, and Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), provide autoscaling capabilities that allow you to automatically adjust the number of resources allocated to your application based on the workload demands. This can help ensure that your application performs well and remains highly available even during peak traffic periods.
