Private, Public, or Hybrid?

Private vs. Public Cloud: What’s the Difference?

If you’ve been researching cloud computing, you’re probably well aware of the private vs. public cloud debate. Before you decide which end of the debate you side with, it’s important to know the difference between the two.

Private Cloud

In this plan, you share a common infrastructure in the Abidjan Virtuel data center of your choice. This is delivered as a service for a predetermined and standard monthly fee.
A private cloud hosting solution, also known as an internal or enterprise cloud, resides on company’s intranet or hosted data center where all of your data is protected behind a firewall. This can be a great option for companies who already have expensive data centers because they can use their current infrastructure. However, the main drawback people see with a private cloud is that all management, maintenance and updating of data centers is the responsibility of the company. Over time, it’s expected that your servers will need to be replaced, which can get very expensive. On the other hand, private clouds offer an increased level of security and they share very few, if any, resources with other organizations.

Public Cloud

In this arrangement, you get to use dedicated infrastructure in ​data center(s) of your choice (or at your location). This is likewise delivered as a service for a predetermined and standard monthly fee.

The main differentiator between public and private clouds is that you aren’t responsible for any of the management of a private cloud hosting solution. Your data is stored in the provider’s data center and the provider is responsible for the management and maintenance of the data center. This type of cloud environment is appealing to many companies because it reduces lead times in testing and deploying new products. However, the drawback is that many companies feel security could be lacking with a public cloud. Even though you don’t control the security of a public cloud, all of your data remains separate from others and security breaches of public clouds are rare.

Hybrid IT

This is a combination of both the Public Cloud and the Private Club. This, too, is delivered as a service for a predetermined and standard monthly fee.
So which is right for you? Ultimately, it all boils down to control. A large company may choose a private cloud, while a smaller business might choose a public cloud.
