Definition:

A public cloud is defined as the digital infrastructure and computing resources that are managed by a service provider. Examples of public cloud computing resources include virtual machines, storage, and services, all of which are available for purchase with flexible (e.g., pay as you go and subscription) business models.

Public cloud service providers own and maintain the physical infrastructure, hardware, and software. Users only need to pay for the computing resources that they require. The Public Cloud market refers to the companies that provide these cloud computing resources and services to individuals, businesses, and organizations.
