Most people have heard of public and private clouds for businesses. The public cloud offers access to data and computing for apps and software for approved users or those with login and passwords. Private clouds offer additional layers of security and are used for access by authorized users only, typically with multi-factor authentication and internal security to restrict access to only specific types of data or computing services.
A hybrid cloud is a combination of the two. It offers a public side and a private side, with the ability of the business to change, modify, or move workloads and storage between the public and private side. This is a highly flexible option that is a benefit for many businesses, organizations, and companies to consider.
Reduce Costs
Maintaining a private cloud can be costly, even when choosing a data center for server management, co-location services, or bare metal servers. Choosing the hybrid option allows the company to limit the use of the private side of the cloud for only those essential applications or data storage needs.
Security
As mentioned above, the private side of the cloud allows for the development of various security layers. Leaving in-house IT teams or trusted providers to manage the private security is essential in protecting sensitive data and safeguarding to specific industry standards, if applicable.
Integration
The choice of a hybrid cloud also works with specific options in public clouds. This allows a company to take advantage of the developed infrastructure of the public cloud and implement their own private infrastructure on their side, with both sides allowing workflow between the environments.
