However, \u201ccloud computing\u201d is still used to mean a lot of things to a lot of people.\u00a0 When it comes to slicing up the cloud taxonomy a little further, there\u2019s still quite a bit of confusion between the public cloud and private cloud computing. The public cloud is defined as a multi-tenant environment, where you buy a \u201cserver slice\u201d in a cloud computing environment that is shared with a number of other clients or tenants. Public clouds such as Amazon EC2 and Rackspace Cloud have a number of trade-offs: Utility Model \u2013 Public Clouds typically deliver a pay-as-you-go model, where you pay by the hour for the compute resources you use.\u00a0 This is an economical way to go if you\u2019re spinning up &amp; tearing down development servers on a regular basis. No Contracts \u2013 Along with the utility model, you\u2019re only paying by the hour \u2013 if you want to shut down your server after only 2 hours of use, there is no contract requiring your ongoing use of the server.
