There are 4 Types of Deployment models in cloud as follows
- Public Cloud
- Private Cloud
- Community Cloud
- Hybrid Cloud
Public Cloud:-
- Public cloud is a cloud deployment model where computing resources are owned and operated by a provider and shared across multiple tenants via the Internet.
- This type of cloud is less secure then that of private cloud.
- Examples of this cloud are AWS, AZURE, GCP, etc.
Private Cloud:-
- A Private Cloud is a model of cloud computing where the infrastructure is dedicated to a single user organization.
- This type of cloud is also called as Enterprise cloud.
- This cloud is developed for any companies specific need and the encryption which is used is known to the authorities of that company.
- This is secure type of cloud.
- But you have to take care of all the cloud by yourself.
- Examples of this cloud are HP Data Centers, Microsoft, Elastra-private cloud, and Ubuntu.
Community Cloud:-
- Community cloud is a cloud infrastructure that allows systems and services to be accessible by a group of several organizations to share the information. It is owned, managed, and operated by one or more organizations in the community, a third party, or a combination of them.
- Examples of this cloud is U.S.-based dedicated IBM SoftLayer cloud for federal agencies.
Hybrid Cloud:-
- A hybrid cloud is one in which applications are running in a combination of different environments. Hybrid cloud computing approaches are widespread because almost no one today relies entirely on the public cloud.
- These hybrid cloud platforms connect public and private resources in different ways, but they often incorporate common industry technologies, such as Kubernetes to orchestrate container-based services.
- The hybrid cloud is combination of Public Cloud and Private Cloud
- Examples of this cloud are AWS Outposts, Azure Stack, Azure Arc, Google Anthos and VMware Cloud on AWS.
