Why private cloud - PSJoshi/Notes GitHub Wiki

Private cloud allows you to build your own on-premises infrastructure. This enables the highest levels of control over security, such as data protection and compliance, while also allowing you to define your own service-level agreements.

Characteristics of typical private cloud:

• Self-service provisioning: End users can spin up computing resources for almost any type of workload on demand.

• Elasticity: Companies can scale up as computing needs increase and scale down again as demands decrease.

• Automation: IT teams can simplify deployments and reduce risk while alleviating the stress of the cybersecurity skills shortage.

• Pay per use: Computer resources are measured at a granular level, allowing for automated chargebacks to the departments consuming resources
