Which type of cloud infrastructure is typically utilized when there is a necessity for a general public usage model?

Hybrid Cloud
Private Cloud
Public Cloud
Virtual Private Cloud

The correct answer is: Public Cloud

The correct choice is the public cloud, as it is specifically designed to be available for general public use. Public clouds are accessible to anyone over the internet and provide shared resources for various users, often on a pay-as-you-go basis. This model is ideal for organizations or individual users who need scalable resources without the need for investing in physical infrastructure. Other types of cloud infrastructures serve different purposes. A hybrid cloud combines both public and private clouds to allow for greater flexibility and deployment options but does not focus solely on public usage. A private cloud is intended for exclusive use by a single organization, providing better control and security, which does not cater to general public access. The virtual private cloud offers a more secure environment within the public cloud but is still fundamentally part of public cloud infrastructure and is designed for a more controlled access rather than general public use.
