Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) handles compute, storage, and network resources. Microservices, on the other hand, make it possible to quickly scale up a single aspect of an application, such as storage or compute use. FaaS drills down even deeper to scale specific aspects of storage, compute, or other services.
