Cloud types
A set of hardware, networking, storage, services, applications,
and interfaces owned and operated by a third party for use by
other companies.
A set of hardware, networking,
storage, services, applications, and
interfaces owned and operated
by an organization or
third-party for the exclusive
use of one enterprise.
A combination of a private cloud
combined with the use of public
cloud services.

Hybrid Cloud
• An architecture that combines elements of
private clouds, public clouds, and on
premise or Colo data centers.
• Not all applications or workloads are cloud
friendly by design, its important to
understand were is the right place for the
application or workload.
• Data sovereignty and compliance need to be
looked at as well.
• There is a need to own some infrastructure
and rent where possible.

Things to consider
• Consistency is key between what you manage and what's running in the cloud.
• The environment needs to work seamless for end users whether in the public cloud or the private
cloud.
• Security needs to be enabled end to end. Control resources securely regardless of where they are.
• The infrastructure that your department maintains must be agile, able to support new requirements
at a much faster pace than was previously possible. Enables a Digital transformation.
• Getting a hybrid cloud project off the ground means dealing with migration and integration
challenges.
• Old ways of providing infrastructure introduced shadow IT. Risk to business.

What does success look like?
Hybrid cloud strategies support the delivery of high-value applications and services to the
business, while at the same time driving cost and inefficiency out of the IT infrastructure.
• A hybrid cloud infrastructure should also provide a wide
ecosystem of potential services to choose from.
• A robust hybrid cloud strategy should accommodate a
range of deployment options, including:
• Virtualized machines (VMs);
• Containers;
• Bare metal servers; and
• Software delivered as a service (SaaS).
• Automation and end to end service management
• Multi-cloud / Hybrid Cloud DR

A new approach to your datacenter
Traditional datacenter • Tight coupling between infrastructure and apps
• Expensive, vertically integrated hardware
• Silo-ed infrastructure and operations
• Highly customized processes and configurations
Cloud model • Loosely coupled apps and micro-services
• Industry-standard hardware
• Service-focused DevOps
• Standardized processes and configurations

Agility and the Cloud
Compute Data

Hybrid Cloud Management Simplify the amount of tools you have
• Deploy Fast, Monitor more, Empower Ops
• Workload portability is key
• Open, extensible architecture
• API-based integrations across diverse
infrastructure platforms and management tools
• Robust IT asset management and template
design libraries
• Unified control across network, storage and
compute resources

Hybrid Cloud Leveraging Multi-Cloud
• Not all clouds are equal, Multi-Cloud choice
is important.
• Adjacency to Cloud Services to reduce
latency and increase performance.
• Creating a Private cloud that offers flexibility
to work with Multiple Cloud services.
• Organization needs the right APIs and tools
in place. Storage decisions will become
even more critical.
• Orchestration will make management across
clouds much easier.

Modern availability challenges We hear from our enterprise customers
“I need to consolidate
vendors and require a
partner who can solve my
disaster recovery and
backup needs under one
contract.”
“My infrastructure is
extremely complex and
features a mix of
VMware & Hyper-V,
Windows & Linux and
many one-off
applications.”
“I am looking to take
advantage of a hybrid
deployment but it is a
complicated process to
migrate workloads to
the cloud.”
“I know the cloud has
a number of useful
services but it has
proven difficult to
achieve in reality.”
