Cloud deployment model#

Public Cloud:#

Like a big apartment building, many people share the resources (servers, storage, etc.). It’s affordable and easy to use, but privacy might be lower. Think Google Drive or Gmail.

Private Cloud:#

Like your own personal apartment, you have all the resources to yourself. It’s secure and customizable, but more expensive to manage. Think banks or government agencies.

Community Cloud:#

Like an apartment building for your friends, a group of organizations share resources based on common needs. It offers some security and control, but might be less flexible. Think research institutions or industry groups.

Hybrid Cloud:#

Like having both your own apartment and renting extra space sometimes, you combine public and private clouds. It gives you flexibility and control, but can be complex to manage. Think companies with sensitive data but also needing public cloud scalability.
