Why each option
Community Cloud is a deployment model where infrastructure is shared among organizations with common concerns such as mission, security requirements, or compliance obligations.
Public Cloud infrastructure is provisioned for open use by the general public, not restricted to a specific group of organizations with shared concerns.
Private Cloud infrastructure is provisioned for exclusive use by a single organization comprising multiple consumers, not shared across multiple organizations.
Community Cloud is specifically defined as infrastructure provisioned for exclusive use by a specific community of consumers from organizations that have shared concerns - such as mission, security requirements, policy, or compliance considerations. It may be owned and managed by one or more organizations in the community, a third party, or a combination, and may exist on or off premises.
Hybrid Cloud is a composition of two or more distinct cloud deployment models (public, private, or community) bound together, not a standalone model for shared organizational use.
Common Cloud is not a recognized cloud deployment model in NIST or any standard cloud computing taxonomy.
