A hybrid cloud setup is a best of all worlds approach, where you can have a mixture of in-


house computing and server hardware and software, whilst still using both types of cloud-


based services. A company with its own server for storage, while using webmail is an example.


An ideal hybrid cloud setup will allow a business to move its workloads between in-house, private and public clouds
seamlessly. This gives the business a host of extra benefits.


THE HYBRID CLOUD


Hybrid Cloud Benefits


Without doubt, the
greatest benefit a
hybrid setup offers
is the flexibility of having an in-house server setup whilst
still being able to move into private and public cloud setups.
Information, according to its sensitivity for example, can be
arranged between the three models ensuring greater security.


    WORKLOAD    FLEXIBILITY

A business that uses Big Data, which
is a term used to collectively describe
voluminous amounts of data to be mined
for information, can use a hybrid cloud approach to store the
vast data collection locally, while running cloud based analytics
within the cloud.


    BIG DATA

The hybrid  cloud
approach also
ensures that a
business has its technology customised to near perfection.
Use of in-house and private cloud setups can be personalised
to the company as a whole or for each individual employee if
necessary; and pushing information to the public cloud enables
ease of access for the workforce.

    ABSOLUTE    CUSTOMISATION

The security    aspect  is
improved through the use of
in-house and private
cloud access. A hybrid cloud setup utilises all the security
benefits of every cloud service layer, as well as locked down,
on-premises security.
