A public cloud is a form of cloud computing built on a multi- tenant environment, relying on a third-party cloud service provider for services such as applications, also known as Software as a Service (SaaS), and storage. Public cloud services are generally delivered over the Internet, are highly flexible, scalable and inexpensive, and may accommodate both prepaid or pay-per-use model. Some major cloud service providers are Amazon, Google, Microsoft, IBM, to name a few.
Why Public Cloud?
Trouble-free, third-party maintenance, and a self-managed structure are the primary reasons that sum up the need for moving to a public cloud server. Specifically, for small and mid-size organizations who are looking to scale up their servers but lack substantial monetary support can easily move on to the public cloud. Not only does it save the cost of building an on-premise datacentre but also lets you experiment with multiple services before deciding on a packaged solution.
