In cloud environment, it is known as platform-as-a-service (PaaS). There are many cloud platform providers in the computing and other significant industries. Some of the major CSPs are AWS, Google Cloud, Windows Azure platform etc. We present a comparative study among various cloud service platforms so that choosing the optimal one for deployment and research development turn out to be easy. The objective of this study is to present the novice with the knowledge of various platforms so that they can choose whichever is suitable to them.
