To support today’s applications, businesses are looking for flexible and secure infrastructure solutions and a hybrid data center might be the answer.
A Hybrid Data Center Strategy
A hybrid data center helps businesses leverage new technologies and is being recognized as an ideal solution to scalability and security.
Hybrid data center means mixed computing and storage environments. Adoption of a hybrid IT infrastructure environment combines the benefits of on-premises data centers, private cloud and/or public clouds services – allowing to quickly respond to changing business needs. The real advantage of a hybrid cloud lies in the ability to gain a comfortable and flexible middle ground to ensure all your workloads are treated properly and cost-effectively.
What are the workload placements in a hybrid data center?
– Private cloud
Private cloud refers to a model of cloud computing in which computing resources are rented by a single client or company and dedicated to the needs and goals of one business
– Public cloud
Public cloud is a model where data is stored off-site on a shared server managed and maintained by a service provider.
– On-premises
On-prem is an environment where resources are deployed in-house or within a data center.
A hybrid data center infrastructure allows businesses to easily customize workload placement based on their workloads and applications. This means that some workloads can remain on-premises, while others run in the cloud – the best of both worlds.
