Why Hybrid Cloud?

Expand Capacity Enhance Capability

Example: Public cloud could be used for disaster recovery of a private service

Example: Use a public cloud backup storage service for archival purposes

To augment internal capacity

• For seasonal workloads (e.g. holiday sales, tax season)

For staging workloads

• Dev/test/pilot in public cloud and production in private cloud

For disaster recovery

• Public cloud used as disaster recovery back up

As a migration path

• To transition on-premises environment to public cloud

For specific services

• Leverage unique services provided by a cloud provider
