What is Cloud?
• A cloud is a physical data center entity behind an API endpoint
• What do you mean by that?
• EC2 or Amazon Web Services is not a cloud
• Eucalyptus, Cloud.com are not clouds
• An availability zone is not a cloud, it‟s part of one
• Rackspace Hosting is not a cloud.
• EC2 East, Rackspace Cloud Servers, my private cloud… are clouds
• Think of a cloud as a “resource pool” accessed via API

What is Private Cloud?
• Comprised of one or more datacenters
• Physical Infrastructure that sits behind an API
• May or may not leverage virtualization
• May or may not be hosted by „you‟
• Is available only for your consumption.
