Correct arrangement

  • Public
  • Hybrid
  • Private

Explanation

The correct arrangement maps cloud models to scenarios based on cost, control, and compliance needs. Public cloud minimizes costs for general workloads with no special data requirements, making it the lowest-cost option for standard business operations. Hybrid cloud balances cost and control by keeping sensitive or legacy systems on-premises while leveraging public cloud for scalable workloads. Private cloud is reserved for scenarios with strict regulatory, compliance, or data sovereignty requirements where full control is mandatory, even at higher cost.
