Cloud deployment models

The document outlines four cloud deployment models: Public, Private, Community, and Hybrid. Each model is defined with its use cases, evaluation criteria, and success stories, highlighting their suitability for different organizational needs and security requirements. Public cloud is ideal for startups, Private cloud for security-sensitive organizations, Community cloud for collaborative projects, and Hybrid cloud for those needing both security and scalability.

Cloud deployment models

1- Public cloud

Public cloud is a model where computing resources (servers, storage, databases, etc.) are
hosted by a third-party provider (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) and accessed via the
internet. Organizations share the infrastructure but maintain data isolation.

When to adopt it?

● For startups and small businesses that want to avoid high initial investments.
● For applications requiring rapid scalability.
● For projects needing temporary computing power.

Evaluation criteria:

● Elasticity: Very high, scales instantly.


● Control level: Low, dependent on the provider.
● Cost: Low to medium, pay-as-you-go pricing.
● Security: Good but relies on the provider.

Success Stories

● ChatGPT : Deployed on Microsoft Azure, leveraging scalable infrastructure.


● Google Bard: Runs on Google Cloud, providing fast access to training resources.

2- Private Cloud
Private cloud is a dedicated infrastructure exclusively used by a single organization. It can be
hosted on-premises or by a third-party provider.

When to adopt it?

● For companies with strict security and compliance requirements (banks, healthcare,
government).
● For AI models requiring full control over data and computing power.
● When performance optimization is critical.

Evaluation criteria:

● Elasticity: Medium to high, depends on the infrastructure.


● Control level: Very high, organization manages everything.
● Cost: High, requires dedicated hardware and management.
● Security: Very high, as data stays private.

Success stories

● Tesla: Uses a private cloud for training its autonomous driving AI.
● JPMorgan Chase: Deploys a private cloud for AI-powered fraud detection.

3- Community cloud

A community cloud is shared between multiple organizations with similar needs. It allows
systems and services to be accessible by a group of organizations. It is a distributed system
that is created by integrating the services of different clouds to address the specific needs of a
community, industry, or business. The infrastructure of the community could be shared between
the organization which has shared concerns or tasks. It is generally managed by a third party or
by the combination of one or more organizations in the community.
When to adopt it?

● For collaborative projects between companies or institutions in the same industry.


● When cost-sharing and regulatory compliance are priorities.
● For research requiring shared datasets.

Evaluation criteria:

● Elasticity: Medium, depends on setup.


● Control level: Shared among community members.
● Cost: Lower due to shared infrastructure.
● Security: Good, follows industry regulations.

Success stories:

1. GAIA-X: A European initiative for AI research cloud infrastructure.


2. CERN: Uses a community cloud for AI-powered particle physics analysis.

4- Hybride cloud

By bridging the public and private worlds with a layer of proprietary software, hybrid cloud
computing gives the best of both worlds. With a hybrid solution, you may host the app in a safe
environment while taking advantage of the public cloud’s cost savings. Organizations can move
data and applications between different clouds using a combination of two or more cloud
deployment methods, depending on their needs.
When to adopt it?

● For businesses needing both security and scalability.


● For AI companies training models on public cloud but performing inference on private
cloud.
● When compliance requires on-prem storage but public cloud is needed for high-
performance computing.

Evaluation criteria:

● Elasticity: Very high, best of both worlds.


● Control level: Moderate to high, depends on architecture.
● Cost: Varies based on workload distribution.
● Security: Excellent when well-managed.

Success stories:

1. IBM Watson (Healthcare AI): Uses a hybrid model to analyze medical data while
ensuring privacy.
2. Netflix: Trains its recommendation AI on AWS (public cloud) but uses private
infrastructure for sensitive data processing.
