What Are The Deployment Models Of Cloud Computing?
Deployment models are basically defined based on who can access the cloud, the way we access the cloud, and the storage size.
There are 4 types of deployment models of the cloud namely:
1. Public Cloud Model
2. Private Cloud Model
3. Community Cloud Model
4. Hybrid Cloud Model
1. Public Cloud Model
The Public Cloud Model allows the general public to access all the services provided by the cloud. Clouds based on this model are highly scalable and cost-effective, consisting of a huge amount of space. E.g. Google AppEngine, Amazon EC2.
2. Private Cloud Model:
The Private Cloud allows people within the organization to access all the services provided by the cloud. The Private Cloud is operated only within a single organization. However, it may be managed internally or by a third party.
3. Community Cloud Model
The Community Cloud allows group of organizations sharing the same interest to access services provided by the cloud. It can be possiblly managed internally or by a third party.
4. Hybrid Cloud Model
The Hybrid Cloud is a combination of both public and private clouds. In this, Non Critical activities are done through the public cloud while critical activities are done through the private cloud.
