Source: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/overview/what-is-cloud-computing/ Cloud Business IaaS PaaS Infrastructure as a service (IaaS): The most basic category of cloud computing services. With IaaS, you rent IT infrastructure servers and virtual machines (VMs), storage, networks, operating systems from a cloud provider on a pay-as-you-go basis. Platform as a service (PaaS): Services that supply an on-demand environment for developing, testing, delivering, and managing software applications. PaaS is designed to make it easier for developers to quickly create web or mobile apps, without worrying about setting up or managing the underlying infrastructure of servers, storage, network, and databases needed for development. SaaS Software as a service (SaaS): A method for delivering software applications over the Internet, on demand and typically on a subscription basis. With SaaS, cloud providers host and manage the software application and underlying infrastructure, and handle any maintenance, like software upgrades and security patching. Users connect to the application over the Internet, usually with a web browser on their phone, tablet, or PC. 2017 TM Forum 9

Cloud & FSI ACCA members collectively discussed what the main blockers to cloud adoption were, and addressed them in this report for the FSI, they were primarily REGULATORY and POLICY blockers i.e. not sure if my authority will allow me to move to cloud http://www.asiacloudcomputing.org/research/2015-research/fsi2015 2017 TM Forum 18
Cloud & FSI The report compares regulations in 14 Asia Pacific markets, in nine specific areas: 1. Processes for adopting cloud, 2. Contracts for cloud Services, 3. Data location, 4. Data use limitations, 5. Security, 6. Data segregation, 7. Business continuity, 8. Audit, review and monitoring, 9. Exit. http://www.asiacloudcomputing.org/research/2015-research/fsi2015 2017 TM Forum 19
http://www.asiacloudcomputing.org/research/2015-research/fsi2015 Cloud & FSI Five Recommendations to FSI Policymakers Banking, Non-Banking FSI Insurance, Securities, FinTech, etc 1. Regulations should be technology neutral. There should not be separate regulations for the use of Cloud Services. 2. Regulations should set out a clear process that should be followed for the adoption of Cloud Services (as if it were any other form of outsourcing) and approval for the use of Cloud Services should not be required. 3. The transfer of Data to other jurisdictions should be permitted, subject to appropriate safeguards (e.g. security, business continuity, access and audit). 4. Regulations should only identify the key issues that should be addressed in outsourcing contracts that include Cloud Services. They should not be prescriptive of the terms of an outsourcing contract that includes Cloud Services. 5. The use of independent third party audits should be an acceptable alternative to audits carried out by FSIs and the Regulators. 2017 TM Forum 20
