Cloud Computing technology, which comes out with 4 different types, allows it to be used in different areas and in different ways.

  1. Public Cloud: It is a cloud technology established with servers on the Internet. Services that a provider provides to a large number of customers on the web are called public cloud services. The SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS examples mentioned above all provide public cloud-based services. The biggest benefit of using public cloud services is the ability to share resources at scale, allowing organizations to offer their employees more talent than would be possible alone. An example of this pay-as-you-go model that you would use in small and medium-sized companies is e-mails.

  2. Private Cloud: It is a cloud technology preferred by large companies whose information is important. Private cloud means the use of cloud computing resources exclusively by a single business or organization. All information is in the hands of the founder and access security and privacy is high. The private cloud can be physically located in the company's own data center. Some companies may work with a third-party service provider to host their own private clouds. Services and infrastructure in the private cloud are provided over a private network.

  3. Hybrid Cloud: It is a cloud technology that emerges from the combination of Public and Private Cloud. Hybrid cloud environments combine and connect the public and private cloud through a technology that allows data and application sharing between the two. By allowing data and applications to be moved between private and public cloud, hybrid cloud offers greater flexibility and deployment options, while helping to improve existing infrastructure, security and compliance processes. Hybrid cloud is often used when an organization needs to store sensitive data in a private cloud, but wants employees to access applications and resources in the public cloud for daily communication and collaboration.

  4. Community Cloud: It is a cloud technology that hosts services that are shared with several companies. Community members can access applications and data.
