Hey & welcome back to "Lets talk - Cloud Computing"
In this post I'll talk about the advantages of the private cloud.

Private Cloud
In contrast to the public cloud, a private cloud is protected and only available to a closed circle of users - usually a company. Access is via the company's intranet or a VPN firewall, for example. Hosting of a private cloud takes place in the company's own data center (On Premise) or at an external provider. The latter then usually provides a Virtual Private Cloud. If desired, however, dedicated computers can also be rented.
Advantages of private cloud
- Control and security over all data and services, as resources are not shared with other companies
- More exclusivity
- Influence on location and type of data storage
However, the current trend is away from the use of a private cloud towards the use of public and hybrid cloud models.
In my thirds episode of "Lets talk - Cloud Computing" - I'll talk about the hybrid cloud model, click follow & don't miss it.
Have a nice day
