CLOUD & 5G

The Private Cloud , Hybrid Cloud and Public Cloud are all different models of cloud computing , each with its own advantages .

A Private Cloud – as the name suggests – is a cloud computing environment for exclusive use by a single organisation .
A Public Cloud is a cloud computing environment where resources such as servers and storage are owned and operated by a third-party cloud service provider and shared among multiple organisations ( tenants ), ideal for startups .
Finally , a Hybrid Cloud is a combination of both private and public cloud environments , providing businesses with greater flexibility and optimisation .
The choice between private , public , and hybrid cloud depends on an organisation ’ s specific needs , including security requirements , budget , regulatory compliance and the nature of its workloads .
