▪ Integrating private cloud with public cloud adds complexity to the
infrastructure and requires significant effort and time to maintain and
evolve these two different types of clouds when an organization needs
to change.
▪ Intellectual property problems and legal risks due to the lack of the
ability to see and control the public cloud infrastructure where it is
based on the cloud service provider to protect data while adhering to
local and international regulations and having part of the responsibility
on the companies using these services if a breach occurs.
▪ Cost concerns because if cloud resources are used for a long time, this
may be reflected in the overall price, which in turn becomes higher
than expected.
In the end, the comparison between these three types of clouds
can be summarized as follows:
