> The difference is that cloud relies on public services

What are the public services that AWS relies on, and how are they different from a bank's server farm, or a bank renting out space in a datacenter?

The same, really, applies to all other concerns.

Route 53, CloudFront, AWS Console, AWS IAM, etc.

All of these services are hosted by AWS in a multi-tenant fashion, sharing not only the code, but infrastructure and configuration patterns.
