Different types of models in the Cloud

What is Public Cloud? ☁️

A Public Cloud is a kind of cloud computing environment where multiple customers (individuals or organizations) receive cloud services, like networking, storage, and processing power, via the internet from a third-party provider. Examples include Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Customers can access and use resources on-demand, frequently on a pay-as-you-go basis, while the public cloud provider owns, operates, and maintains the physical infrastructure.

Private Cloud 🔒

A cloud computing environment that is exclusively used by one company or organization is known as a private cloud. A private cloud gives a single organization exclusive access to network infrastructure, storage, and processing power, in contrast to a public cloud where resources are shared by several users. This is not shared with other organizations regardless of whether it is hosted by a third-party provider or on-site in the company's own data center.

Hybrid Cloud 🌐

A hybrid cloud is a type of cloud computing where on-premises infrastructure and the usage of both private and public clouds are combined. This enables businesses to manage workloads across various environments, utilizing different cloud types according to the needs of the business.
Data and apps can flow between the various environments in a hybrid cloud configuration for increased scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness.
