AThe looser layers
BThe listed layers
CThe linked layers
DThe lower layers
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. The lower layers
1. The customer writes and runs applications on a PaaS.
2. Everything beneath the application is the provider's.
3. In PaaS, the cloud provider controls the more privileged, lower layers of the software stack.
4. So the answer is the lower layers.
