I figure if you have entity Y's workloads running on entity X's hardware...

That seems like a strange definition. It doesn't incorporate the usual
multi-tenancy requirement that traditionally separates private from public
clouds. By that definition, Rackspace's Private Cloud offer, where we

Hey Matt,
I think the conversation would be valuable. Historically, we have let the
Large Deployment Team incubate Public Cloud topics because of the active
