Public, Private, Multi and Hybrid Clouds
Hello!!! In this next post in the AWS SAA series, we will discuss about the different cloud deployment models. There are atleast 4 deployment models:
- Public Cloud
- Multi Cloud
- Hybrid Cloud
- Private Cloud
All major cloud service providers have a public and private version of the cloud computing platform. To know when and where to use them. We need to understand the difference between the different deployment models.
Public Cloud
This type of cloud environment/platform is available to the public. The examples are AWS, Azure and Google. This means these platforms follow 5 major features of the cloud computing and also that they are available to the public.
Multi Cloud
This cloud platform refers to storing company data in multiple public cloud. One part in AWS and the other in Azure.
Hybrid Cloud
The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more distinct cloud infrastructures (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities, but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load balancing between clouds).
Private Cloud
The cloud infrastructure is provisioned for exclusive use by a single organization comprising multiple consumers in an org. (e.g., business units). It may be owned, managed, and operated by the organization, a third party, or some combination of them, and it may exist on or off-premises
Note: Hybrid Cloud is NOT public cloud with legacy on-premises infrastructure
