To introduce the different issues of Data-Science, from a System perspective, we can take the analogy with the following category of cloud computing services:

o SaaS (Software as a Service): It is sometimes referred to as "on-demand software ». In the context of Data-Science and data analysis software, It may concern to provide to end user data mining tools, algorithms, analytics suites… All these tools are available through a Web browser.

o PaaS (Platform as a Service): it allows users to develop, run, and manage applications without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure and through a Web browser In the context of Data-Science it provides to end users platforms to build their own data analytics applications or to extend and existing suite without any idea about the underlying physical architecture;

o IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): In the context of Data-Science, but not only, it provides a set of virtualized resources (services, processors…) that developers can assemble to run analytics applications or to store data.

o NaaS (Network as a Service): it describes services for network transport connectivity. In the context of Data-Science it may concern the production of Virtual Private Network that enable a host computer to send and receive data across shared or public networks with the functionalities and policies of the private network.

Typical examples of frameworks that can be offered as a service (with some efforts to cloudily them) are Apache Haddop and Mahout, SciDB, CloudFlows, Spark, Flink, TensorFlow, BigML, Splunk Hunh… (mettre des hyper liens sur chacun des termes)
