The three main types of cloud computing are public, private, and hybrid.
Public cloud: A set of computing services provided over the internet by third-party providers. Public clouds offer a wide range of services that can be purchased or used by anyone. Some examples of public cloud providers include Alibaba Cloud, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, IBM Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Private cloud: Cloud computing resources used exclusively by a single business or organization. Private clouds are also known as internal, enterprise, or corporate clouds. They are usually managed via internal resources and are not accessible to anyone outside the organization. Hybrid cloud: A mixed computing environment where applications are run using a combination of computing, storage, and services in different environments. A hybrid cloud is a combination of a private cloud combined with the use of public cloud services.
Cloud computing also has four main services: Infrastructure as a service (IaaS): Platform as a service (PaaS): Software as a service (SaaS): Serverless computing
