Space infrastructure as a service (IaaS)

Space Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) refers to a model where companies provide essential services and tools for space activities, similar to how cloud services provide computing resources. This can include satellite platforms, launch services, space-based data processing, and communication networks. Instead of building their own satellites or launch systems, organizations can rent these services on-demand, enabling them to focus on their core missions and reduce costs. This model fosters innovation and accessibility in space exploration and technology while encouraging collaboration among businesses and researchers in the space industry.
