Private Cloud
Cloud computing resources used exclusively by a single organization, on-premises or hosted.
A private cloud is a cloud environment dedicated entirely to one organization, where the underlying hardware is not shared with other tenants. It can be hosted on-premises in the organization’s own datacenter or in a colocation facility. The exam trade-off: private cloud gives greater control, customization, and the ability to meet strict regulatory or data-residency requirements, but the organization bears full responsibility for purchasing, provisioning, and maintaining all hardware. This contrasts with the public cloud, where Microsoft owns and operates the infrastructure. Azure Stack HCI and Azure Stack Hub bring Azure-consistent services on-premises.
