If we take the term "private" to an extreme, you are absolutely right. We took the term in a similar way as it is used with virtual private servers. Also our business model will be based on providing the logistics around a private cloud, which focuses on convenience.


"Public Cloud" and "Private Cloud" are pretty standard industry terms for using the same orchestration systems on your own data center vs. an outsourced one.


Is there any plan to allow the service to point at one's own DO or AWS account? That would remove one more privacy concern some folk seem to have.


Not currently, but we will be working with VPS providers to provide this option.
