Private cloud provides computing services to a private internal network (within the organization) and select users. Private clouds provide a high level of security and privacy to data through firewalls and internal hosting. It also ensures that operational and sensitive data is not accessible to third party providers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Private Cloud, organizations have their cloud environment in its own data-center and provide self-service access to compute resources for its own organization. Use case scenario for Private cloud when data cannot be exposed on Public Cloud due to legal and security reasons. Legacy or government applications may have such restrictions. Some of the Private Cloud providers are <strong><em>HPE, IBM, VMware, Dell EMC and Oracle<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"private-cloud-framework\"><strong>Private Cloud Framework<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Private cloud delivers data and programs from resources which are dedicated to customers.

Workloads can be deployed to a different physical server but as demand changes resources dedicated to the particular server can be adjusted to meet the changing demands of specific applications.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"reduced-costs\"><strong>Reduced costs&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Flexibility and improved resource utilization help organizations to ensure application performance by reducing costs of getting more out of their servers. A private cloud environment will save money over a  traditional on premises environment. Private cloud running on single tenant dedicated VMware is less expensive to businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"increased-security\"><strong>Increased Security&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Private cloud environment provides more robust security features such as robust antivirus and firewall protection, a private cloud runs on certain physical systems, which makes physical security easier to manage. Cloud access is more secure in Private cloud environment due to its private access and secure network links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"regulatory-compliance\"><strong>Regulatory Compliance<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Private cloud environment for organizations having compliance concerns is due to its security and control benefits.
