Abstract
Security and privacy concerns are increasingly important when massive data processing and transferring becomes a reality in the era of the Sixth Generation (6G) Networks. Under this circumstance, it becomes a trend that the enterprises tend to host their data and services on private clouds dedicated to their own use, rather than the public cloud services. However, in contrary to the well-investigated total cost of ownership (TCO) for public clouds, the analytic research on the cost of purchase and operation for private clouds is still a blank. In this work, we first review the state-of-the-art TCO literature to summarize the models, tools, and cost optimization techniques for public clouds. Based on our survey, we envision the TCO modeling and optimization for private clouds by comparing the differences of features between public and private clouds.
