Cloud Types
Public cloud
Azure owns the hardware on their network and infrastructure
Open for everyone to sign up
Renting services
Private cloud
Looks and acts like a cloud except the customer owns or leases or has exclusive access to the hardware
Azure Stack - Software that is licensed to use a portal on your own private cloud
Hybrid cloud
Combination of public and private clouds

Compare and Contrast:
Public cloud:
MSFT owns the hardware and you are leasing services
Private cloud:
Your hardware, more like a traditional on-prem build
Hybrid cloud:
It's a mix between the two
