Cloud Infrastructure Adoption Models

 

Public Cloud

The public cloud model enables organizations to utilize cloud computing resources within a multi-tenant environment. By leasing cloud infrastructure from third-party service providers, organizations benefit from scalability, reliability, and high availability, all while maintaining cost efficiency.

Private Cloud

A private cloud is a cloud computing environment dedicated to one organization. Cloud infrastructure includes compute resources such as CPU and storage that can be provisioned on demand through a self-service portal. In a private cloud, all resources are isolated and controlled by a single organization, which is why it’s also referred to as the internal or corporate cloud.

Hybrid Cloud

The hybrid cloud model enables organizations to utilize both private and public clouds concurrently. The public cloud facilitates access and resource sharing across various geographical locations, whereas the private cloud provides a self-managed infrastructure for securely storing sensitive data in an isolated environment.
