Cloud Deployment Model

There are four common cloud deployment models: public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, and community cloud. A public cloud is owned by a third-party provider and resources are available to the general public over the internet. A private cloud is built and owned within an organization and only accessible to that organization. A hybrid cloud is a combination of public and private clouds where less sensitive workloads are hosted in the public cloud and critical workloads are in the private cloud. A community cloud is a multi-tenant platform that allows groups with common purposes to work on a single platform with restricted access.

Cloud deployment model

A cloud deployment model is used to represent a specific cloud environment type,


differentiated based on the type of users availing the cloud models.
The four common models are -
1. Public Cloud
2. Private Cloud
3. Hybrid Cloud
4. Community Cloud

Public Cloud
What is a Public cloud?
Public cloud is a cloud environment owned by a third-party cloud provider that enables
availability of resources such as applications, virtual machines, etc., to the general public over
the internet.
Few of such providers are Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure.
A public cloud being a fully virtualized environment provides services in a multi-tenant fashion.
Each tenant's data remains separated from other's data.
Success of a public cloud relies on a high bandwidth network connectivity enabling faster data
transmission.

Salient Examples
•Cloud storage services
•Online software applications
•Cloud hosting and the list grows.

Benefits of Public Cloud


• Scalability: On-demand availability of resources.
• Cost Effective: Expenditure reduced due to centralized management of resources.
• Reliability: Backup support enabled in case of failures.
• Flexibility: Offers all services such as IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS.
• Location Independent: Services are enabled to consumers anywhere and anytime.
Private Cloud
Private cloud is also recognized as an internal cloud or corporate cloud.

Usually built and owned within an organization and is a secured cloud-based environment
accessible only for the organization.
In a private cloud:
•Administration can be done either by an internal or by an outsourced staff.
•Same organization technically plays both the roles of cloud consumer and cloud
provider.
Private cloud is most ideal for the organizations which require direct control over the
environments to meet security and business compliance requirements.

Benefits of Private Cloud


• Higher Security and Privacy: Achieved using access restrictions to connections made to
resources.
• Legal Compliance: Can be deployed in accordance with any retention and access-control
policies.
• Better Control: Since private cloud can be accessed only by a single organization, that
organization will configure and manage it based on their needs.

Hybrid Cloud
Hybrid cloud environment is the combination of both private and public clouds.
Organizations use a Hybrid cloud to deploy private clouds for critical workloads and a public
cloud to host less critical (or less sensitive) workloads.
An e-commerce website could be an ideal example. It can be hosted within a private cloud for
better security, while its brochure site can be hosted within a public cloud for cost-
effectiveness.
If your organization wishes to establish a hybrid cloud, it needs to ensure:
•Availability of a Public IaaS platform (such as AWS, Microsoft Azure).
•Availability of a private cloud ( on-premises or through a private cloud provider).
•Ensure adequate WAN (wide area network) connectivity between the two cloud
environments.
Typically, an enterprise opts for a public cloud for accessing compute instances, storage
resources or other services like big data analytics and it must develop its own private cloud
that is compatible with the public cloud.

Community Cloud
A community cloud is a multi-tenant platform allowing several groups with the same purpose
to work on a single platform.
•Similar to a public cloud but with access restricted to a limited set of people.
•Owned jointly by the community members or by a third-party cloud provider.
•The community members typically own the responsibility for defining and evolving the
cloud environment.

Suitable for joint ventures, research organizations.

Cloud Storage
An online space that is used to store your data such as
• files

• videos

• music

• other structured/semi-structured/unstructured data,

and can be accessed by any device is known as cloud storage.
