Public Cloud. 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. • Hybrid cloud. The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more distinct cloud infrastructures (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities, but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load balancing between clouds)
Public Cloud. To the extent that Customer has ordered Public Cloud storage, the terms of Exhibit A, attached hereto, shall apply.
Public Cloud. For Customers purchasing a Public Cloud service (“Public Cloud”), INAP will provide customer with self-service access to elastic compute and storage resources hosted on a multi-tenant computing and storage platform. Customer is responsible for all configuration and operational tasks associated with virtual machines running in the public cloud. INAP maintains the infrastructure to maintain availability necessary to provide services on demand for INAP’s public cloud.
Public Cloud. The Services are accessible through the public cloud. Sage People and its licensors make no representation or warranty that the Services are appropriate or available for use in jurisdictions not compatible with accessibility through the public cloud.
Public Cloud. Vendor will not create a public cloud account on behalf of University without prior written approval by University’s IT Security team.
Public Cloud. A backup concept exists. In these documents the measures for securing personal and company-critical data are described.
Public Cloud. A public cloud can be accessed by any subscriber with an internet connection and access to the cloud space [10]. A public cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling Cloud services. Public cloud or external cloud as a cloud computing in the traditional mainstream sense, whereby resources are dynamically provisioned on a fine-grained and self-service basis over the Internet via web applications/web services, from an off-site third-party provider who shares resources and bills on a fine-grained utility computing basis. The cloud services are available for anyone to subscribe and to use in a pay-as-you-go manner. A public cloud customer can access these services over the Internet from a third-party provider who may share computing resources with many customers. The public cloud model is widely accepted and adopted by many enterprises because the leading public cloud vendors as Amazon, Microsoft and Google, have equipped their infrastructure with a vast amount of data centers, enabling users to freely scale and shrink their rented resources with low cost and little management burden. Security and data governance are the main concerns with this approach. Sharing applications and infrastructure with unknown co- tenants can lead to concerns over data security and data leakage. If a public cloud is implemented with performance, security, and data locality in mind, the existence of other applications running in the cloud should be transparent to both cloud architects and end users. Indeed, one of the benefits of public clouds is that they can be much larger than a company’s private cloud might be, offering the ability to scale up and down on demand, and transferring infrastructure risks from the enterprise to the cloud provider.
Public Cloud. At some cloud providers the buildings are cared for and moni- tored by security staff and in the case of sensitive areas are also monitored with video. There exists an access authorisation concept that is based on both a lock system, partially with a proper key administration, as well as an electronic access control system. Admission to individual production areas and to the business area is restricted by means of an electronic access control sys- tem while using, for instance, magnetic cards. Visitors are only permitted admission to sensitive areas after advance registration. In the course of accreditation, the visitor receives an identification, e.g. a visitor ID, which labels him as a guest and which he must carry with him during his stay at the site. At some sites the handling of guests is defined by means of a guideline. Admission to the individual production areas is only permitted with the accompaniment of authorised staff.
2.2 Admission control
Public Cloud. Based on the authorisation concept, measures such as direc- tories are set up on the systems that guarantee a strict sepa- ration of data and files from other clients. Customer access to instances that do not correspond to the access authorisations is effectively prevented. Test, productive and integration systems are operated sepa- rately from one another.
Public Cloud. If the input, change or deletion of data are carried out on IT systems, appropriate logging and log evaluation systems are used to log changes to this data (such as access ID, access time, authorisation and relevant activity). Upon request, excerpts and summaries from relevant concepts for such procedures can be provided.
