Some have even gone so far as to call private cloud an oxmoron! In this presentation, ActiveState CEO Bart Copeland refutes that petty argument, and discusses how the private cloud model not only delivers the cloud’s promised flexibility, convenience, and efficiency, but also ensures the control, security, and peace of mind the real-world enterprise demands.
