| Answers Explanation & Hints:
A private cloud is a cloud-based service where the company manages the devices or applications within the cloud. They are just located away from the business at a provider site. If a company is using a public cloud, a provider manages the devices or the applications or both for the company. A hybrid cloud is a combination of two types of clouds, and a common practice is a private and public cloud combination. |
