<para>This guide refers to two running case studies, which are
introduced here and referred to at the end of each chapter.</para>

<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. For example, 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>
