A cloud computing model is provided on a private IT infrastructure available only to a single organization. It means no third parties have access to it. Such models tend to be managed by internal resources. Private clouds ensure high security and privacy levels as the data is kept within the company’s firewalls.
Piwik PRO offers two private cloud options:
- Dedicated database – server resources are shared between clients, but analytics data is kept separate, adding an extra level of security to your visitors’ data.
- Dedicated hardware – all server resources and analytics data are kept separate, which entails higher costs.
