What Is the Cloud Deployment Model?
A cloud deployment model defines how your cloud services are made available, managed, and accessed. It outlines the structure of the cloud environment and determines who owns the infrastructure, who has access to it, and how resources are distributed.
☁️ 1. Public Cloud
- Hosted and managed by third-party providers (e.g., IP ServerOne, AWS, Google Cloud).
- Resources like servers and storage are shared among multiple customers.
- Ideal for businesses looking for cost-effective and scalable solutions without managing hardware.
🏢 2. Private Cloud
- Dedicated to a single organization, hosted either on-premises or by a third-party provider.
- Offers greater control, customization, and enhanced security.
- Suitable for companies with strict regulatory or security requirements.
🌐 3. Hybrid Cloud
- Combines both public and private clouds to offer more flexibility.
- Organizations can keep sensitive workloads on a private cloud and leverage the public cloud for less critical operations or to handle demand spikes.
🧩 4. Community Cloud
- Shared by several organizations with common concerns, such as compliance or industry-specific regulations.
- Managed internally or by a third-party provider.
