Many organizations and people have jumped on the public cloud band wagon for various reasons. It's free or cheap (to a point). Data is safely stored with the minimum of hassle. It's flexible to access (anywhere, anytime, most any device). There are all sorts of neat applications that can be used to enhance use of the data. Yup, all great stuff!
Yes all All of the above are is good, until, reality bites back. In come the litigators, the legal authorities, the public cloud provider “Terms of Use” statements. Paid any attention to what has been going on with the “take downs”, cloud service providers going out of business, the organization merges/buyouts? Oh yes very scary stuff. Now the “owners” who thought it was there data have found it's no longer theirs or access has been cut-off. Ouch!
Take control of your own data. Bring it home where it belongs. Use a “private cloud”. Eliminate/minimize the need for a public cloud. If some public cloud access is required then the private cloud becomes a “hybrid cloud” (combination of the two).
