Is private cloud cheaper than public?

Typically, public cloud solutions provide the most cost-effective pricing. However, in certain instances, migrating workloads to a private cloud can offer greater ease of use, which may ultimately lower the cost to operate. Additionally, certain workloads may not be well-suited for public cloud environments due to factors such as latency, security, or compliance, and may require a private cloud environment. Moreover, scaling up resources in a public cloud environment can result in higher costs, whereas private cloud environments may offer more fixed, predictable costs.
