What does Private Cloud mean?

In the context of technology, private refers to the type of cloud server an organization uses for data storage. One of three types of cloud data storage, a private cloud server is an autonomous storage environment singularly controlled by your organization.

Aside from data storage, what else is privately run within a private cloud system?

When a company runs a private cloud system, not only is their data storage in-house, but also other services related to the maintenance of the system – security, uptime and more.
