What is a Hybrid Cloud and Why do we need it?

Hybrid Cloud

Hybrid cloud architecture can include the current capabilities of your data center on site tied in with new workloads and features from a private solution. You will essentially be able to connect your current data systems with new architectures that run across your business as well as in the cloud. You have the ability to run applications which are critical to your business which may also contain sensitive data on the private cloud systems.

These systems are built into an IBM hybrid integration which is then overseen by a data fabric background software that helps you utilize a number of systems. Using VMware hybrid cloud manager it’s possible to seamlessly access the data you need to across countless resources.

The nature of your cloud applications and storage does not need to change drastically, the way that you access these resources will be seamless but you can gain a number of distinct advantages for running your business.

Some of the best scenarios for a business to run hybrid cloud systems:

When your workloads scale:

Having a public cloud system allows for collaboration with freelancers and across all systems within your company. Workloads for intensive projects can be on the private cloud whereas larger projects can be brought to public cloud for mass collaboration.

Prioritizing critical workflow:

Keeping private customer data secure on a private cloud can ensure that your customers remain safe, using the public lot for enterprise-level applications and customer service can keep the most important data safe while giving your employees access to the data they need for day-to-day business operations.

Cloud Backup Solutions

Better backup solutions:

Hybrid cloud systems can be designed to move data to the cloud incrementally with basic filters. Some of your data can be sent to the public cloud as part of your workload whereas a small-scale private cloud account can be set up for your enterprise to expand your data to private access when needed.

Reducing equipment costs:

Utilizing the hybrid cloud can make sure that public cloud computing resources can be used for short-term projects. This can help to save some of the data within your own IT infrastructure so that you won’t have to continue over investing in equipment for your business to scale.

Handling big data:

Processing the data in the cloud is a constant. Running larger big data analytics projects in scalable public cloud resources can be more affordable as well as more powerful for data analytics. Running private studies under your private cloud resources can make sure that all sensitive data is kept safe from your competitors.

Meeting your needs into the future:

There is no telling when you will need access to the flexibility of private cloud resources or improved on premises resources. Having access to this extra storage and computing power can make sure that your business will have its needs met well into the future.

Having the advantage of both private cloud resources and public cloud resources in one solution can give you virtually limitless options for your cloud based applications. Limiting your option with one type of cloud provider could leave your business unable to adapt in new situations. By choosing a hybrid cloud approach, you can ensure that your business will be able to work in both formats in a simultaneous fashion.
