Cloud nine? Maybe with Hybrid Cloud
In the past couple of years, cloud computing has changed everything around us. More and more organizations have started to use cloud computing as the competitive advantages they have been searching for. We could say that cloud is the answer. Whether we are talking about private, public, or hybrid, business all over the world have shifted their strategies towards an agile environment. This is great, however, I would like to talk more about one cloud strategy in particular, and that’s the hybrid cloud.
The hybrid cloud has taken a huge leap in the last couple of years. Recently, I came across a survey which stated that the “hybrid adoption†grew three times in the past year, increasing from 19% to 57%. For me, this is clear evidence that more business are understanding the huge potential hybrid cloud has to offer. The backbone of my previous statement is from simple figures on i have found on cloud statistics. Here’s what cloud can offer:
- 49% increased collaboration
- 45% business agility and flexibility
- 43% better end customer experience
- 40% increased ability to innovate
After seeing the numbers who wouldn’t want to migrate to the cloud?
