Standing on the shoulders of giants
As stated before, the provider is responsible for the cloud, the user in the cloud. So the provider is responsible for providing services that can be used effectively, efficiently and securely, but it is up to the user tomake sure that they are used effectively, efficiently and securly.
Because both are in the providers interest, they often supply a lot of material to explain how to achieve this in the form of best practices and tooling.
