Private Cloud in cloud computing refers to a model of cloud computing where IT services are provisioned over private IT infrastructure for the dedicated use of a single organization.

• A private cloud is usually managed via internal resources.
• It offers greater control over the infrastructure, improving security and allowing customization of compute, storage, and networking components.

Private Cloud works by providing a dedicated cloud infrastructure to a single organization.

• The infrastructure is typically hosted and managed in-house, although it can also be hosted by a third-party service provider.
• Private clouds can offer a higher level of security and compliance than public clouds, making them suitable for organizations with strict data sovereignty and compliance requirements.

A healthcare organization, HealthOrg, uses a private cloud to store and manage patient data. The private cloud provides them with the flexibility and scalability of a cloud infrastructure, while also ensuring they can meet strict data privacy regulations. They can quickly scale up resources during peak times, such as flu season, and scale down during quieter periods.
