The Different Types Of Cloud Computing
Not all the cloud computing services are the same and no one service will suit every
user. To that end, several different types, models and services have become available
over time and we now have three main cloud deployment types. The first step is to
determine which type of architecture or deployment you require:
- The Public Cloud
Public cloud services are owned by third-parties who operate and deliver the resources
across the internet. Microsoft Azure is a perfect example of a public cloud service; all the
software, hardware and any other infrastructure requirements are fully managed by the
provider and access and account management is via a web browser.
- The Private Cloud
