Definition: PaaS ABB is a Technology Service that enables the procedures for delivering application infrastructure (middleware) capabilities as a service. There are multiple types of PaaS (xPaaS), including, among many more, application platform as a service (aPaaS), integration PaaS (iPaaS), API management PaaS (apimPaaS), function PaaS (fPaaS), business analytics PaaS (baPaaS), IoT PaaS and database PaaS (dbPaaS). PaaS capability can be delivered as provider-managed or self-managed, multitenant or dedicated.

It can be used both as a Red Hat Container Orchestration Engine and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS). https://github.com/openshift/origin eira:iopDimension: Structural IoP LOST view: Technical view - infrastructure eira:iopSaliency: The PaaS ABB is salient for technical interoperability because it provides the mechanism to deploy and publish public administration services and make them accessible through the provided remote infrastructure.
