Private Cloud is different from Public Cloud for a main reason. The infrastructure is precisely “private”, that means dedicated to the single organization which buy the service. That solution guarantees a greater security and data protection because the customer has exclusive access and complete control on the infrastructure and corporate data. Costs are higher than public Cloud, but service is particularly suitable for all the companies of enterprise level and especially for who treat sensitive data and need to get compliance with particular rules. Even in this case is possible to use the pay-per-use model to optimize resources and up-keep costs.
