Private cloud

A dedicated cloud environment for one organisation.

Offers greater control and security, often for compliance reasons. This is a "single tenant" environment, meaning a single organisation has 100% access to all resources. While the benefit of greater control and customisation are appealing, costs are much higher.

Additionally, scalability becomes a core consideration as new infrastrucutre will need to be deployed to match the scaleup project, adding time and further costs to the activity.
