Lets assume a case that most IPA Clients are hosted in private clouds at multiple data centers or across AWS VPCs. In this situation hosting of freeIPA in the public cloud i reckon would be an easier approach (clients can connect over the internet).  The other option would be to host FreeIPA Server in private cloud, which would be more secure,  but then you need to make changes in your network/FW settings across private clouds. Are there any major security concerns if FreeIPA is deployed in public cloud?
Properly configured FreeIPA can run on public Internet. I would recommend you
