<title>Case study: Alice, the private cloud builder</title>
|
|
<para>Alice deploys a private cloud for use by a government
|
|
department in the US. The cloud must comply with relevant
|
|
standards, such as FedRAMP. The security paperwork requirements
|
|
for this cloud are very high. It must have no direct access to
|
|
the internet: its API endpoints, compute instances, and other
|
|
resources must be exposed to only systems within the
|
|
department's network, which is entirely air-gapped from all
|
|
other networks. The cloud can access other network services on
|
|
the organization's intranet such as the authentication and
|
|
logging services.</para>

<title>Case study: Bob, the public cloud provider</title>
|
|
<para>Bob is a lead architect for a company that deploys a large
|
|
greenfield public cloud. This cloud provides IaaS for the masses
|
|
and enables any consumer with a valid credit card access to
|
|
utility computing and storage, but the primary focus is
|
|
enterprise customers. Data privacy concerns are a big priority
|
|
for Bob as they are seen as a major barrier to large-scale
|
|
adoption of the cloud by organizations.</para>
