Hybrid cloud proves to be helping tremendously in building an agile and future-ready hybrid IT environment. Backed by the advantages of public and private clouds, which involve a comprehensive and integrated suite of cloud resources, a hybrid cloud environment helps organizations leverage the flexibility and scalability of public clouds, along with the security and control of their own private infrastructure.
Using a hybrid cloud model, organizations can create a highly optimized IT environment, where they can leverage their own physical resources in their data centers to deploy mission critical applications, and put the non-critical apps on the public cloud. Organization now have the flexibility to choose between different cloud models, based on scalability, performance, and security requirements.
In the next chapter, we will start exploring the AWS public cloud.
