What are the differences between Iaas, Paas, and Saas? Which one provides users with the most control? It would also be great if anyone can give popular examples for each.

IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and SaaS (Software as a Service) are three main categories of cloud computing services.
IaaS:
With IaaS, you rent infrastructure resources such as virtual machines, storage, and networking from a provider on a pay-as-you-go basis.
You have complete control over the infrastructure and can use it to run any application or workload.
Examples of IaaS providers include Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
PaaS:
With PaaS, you get a platform for developing, testing, delivering, and managing applications and services.
The provider handles the infrastructure and maintenance, allowing you to focus on building your applications.
PaaS includes tools and frameworks for developing, testing, and deploying applications.
Examples of PaaS providers include AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Azure App Service, and GCP App Engine.
SaaS:
With SaaS, you use a provider's software application over the internet, typically through a web browser.
The provider handles the infrastructure, maintenance, and updates for the application.
You don't need to install or maintain the software yourself, and you only pay for what you use.
Examples of SaaS providers include Gmail, Google Drive, and Microsoft Office 365.
