Implementing Different Cloud Deployment Models

We will first look at the different cloud models and their characteristics. The most common cloud model is the public cloud, so let's start with that:

Example: A small company does not want to invest $50,000 in IT systems, so they purchase their cloud package from a cloud provider where they and other companies are hosted by the cloud provider. This is similar to someone renting one apartment in a block from a landlord – you lease but do not own the apartment. This is a multitenant environment where the cloud provider has multiple companies on the same virtual host.
