• Key Concepts: 
  Private cloud is a type of cloud computing that provides a secure, isolated environment for businesses to store and manage their data. It is hosted on a private network, meaning that only authorized users can access the data. Private clouds are typically managed by the organization itself, rather than a third-party provider. 
  
  How to use it: 
  SAP Cloud Platform Cloud Foundry (CF) is a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offering from SAP that enables organizations to quickly and easily deploy and manage applications in a private cloud environment. It provides an integrated development environment (IDE) for developers to create and deploy applications, as well as an operations console for administrators to manage and monitor the applications.
