Public
Shift capital expenses to operational expenses—it’s pay-as-you go vs. building an entire data center infrastructure. Take advantage of greater economies of scale—Private clouds simply can’t compete with Google or Amazon on price. Achieve greater scalability quickly.
Private
Fully utilize your hardware with better resource management—with virtualization, you can significantly increase the value of your physical server. Improve security by using your own dedicated hardware. Maintain tighter control over your servers and enjoy the ability to tailor them to your needs.
Hybrid
Enhance agility by taking advantage of the best of both worlds: private and public cloud. Reduce TCO and improve cost efficiency by using the cloud resources that work best for you. Address specific security and compliance issues as they relate to different applications and business functions.
