Explanation:
In a public cloud model, the cloud infrastructure is provisioned for open use by the general public.
It may be owned, managed, and operated by a business, academic, or government organization,
or some combination of them. It exists on the premises of the cloud provider.
Consumers use the cloud services offered by the providers via the Internet and pay metered
usage charges or subscription fees. An advantage of the public cloud is its low capital cost with
enormous scalability. However, for consumers, these benefits come with certain risks:
No control over the resources in the cloud, the security of confidential data, network performance,
and interoperability issues. Popular public cloud service providers are Amazon, Google, and
Salesforce.com. Figure in the slide shows a public cloud that provides cloud services to
organizations and individuals.
