Container-as-a-service (CaaS) is a cloud service that manages, hosts, deploys, and scales containers and applications through APIs, virtualization, or portals. This service is used to develop and manage containers within the IT infrastructure operating in a hybrid or multi-cloud environment.
In cloud computing, containers refer to usable codes bundled with different frameworks, libraries, configuration files, tools, and settings to form complete software packages. These containers thereby function as a virtual operating system environment that can run on a physical machine, a private data center, or a public cloud.
