Why Everyone is moving to Hybrid Cloud

Cloud computing was created through a need; a gap that had been left with the coming of cloud computing, and it

seriously needed filling. When cloud computing first came into the scene, everyone was eager to adopt it, the same

way everyone else is always eager to adapt to a new technology and test whether it will improve their lives, even by

the slightest margin. Huge brands started adopting cloud, the most notable one being Apple, where Apple users could

now store their files and data to the icloud, and soon everyone wanted jump on board. Even realplayer created their

own cloud, known as realplayer cloud where users could upload their videos, and they could be sure that no matter

what happens to their devices, they would always have a permanent place where their videos are safely stored. As

everyone was busy subscribing to the latest cloud service provider, most people especially those who had joined

earlier were soon discovering that it was not all rosy at the cloud. It had some serious challenges which had to be

addressed sooner than later. Huge brands realized that public clouds were more of a risky asset, because their security

was susceptible to compromise. Most people`s joy and happiness was cut short, but not for long because hybrid

computing seemed to offer a remedy to most of these concerns. Today, hybrid cloud computing is the preferred choice

to most organizations and its use is growing gradually, as more and more organizations finally decide to stop sitting

on the fence.

Perhaps most people would ask, “why hybrid cloud?” This article will pursue to answer that question and everything

pertaining to hybrid cloud computing, breaking down in details just how it works and why almost everyone is talking

about it.

Performance

This is what drives people into buying something. Both men and women in this day and age adore high performance

cars. Hybrid cloud computing is no different. People adore it because it offers a higher level of performance compared

to public or private cloud working solo. Mixing the two of them together, offers better functionality and performance.

For example, public clouds offer a wide range of applications and programs, which would be too expensive to acquire

or even afford as single unit. Moreover, their maintenance is also costly, and organizations would have to incur a lot

of costs, some of which they may never be able to leverage, if they decided to offer them in-house. Public servers are

also strong and can handle a huge amount of traffic, since their providers have the resources to provide the best

servers, so as to keep everyone happy. However, this comes at a cost since the infrastructure provided by the public

clouds has to be shared out by multiple users, which brings issues with regards to security. This therefore shows that

in terms of variety of applications and ability to handle a huge amount traffic, public clouds remain supreme.

On the e other hand, private clouds may be directed to offer high performance in areas where public clouds are hit by

shortcomings. They may be used to handle just a limited amount of traffic, for a small group of people, especially

those who are in positions of power and authority in an organization. This is because they will from time-to-time

share confidential information, thus the need to invest highly in this specific area and user has to ensure that the

firewalls offer top quality performance.

This just shows how hybrid cloud computing may be utilized to bring out the best from both sides, hence offer great

performance to the client.

The Right Balance between Costs & Security

This is mainly because the infrastructural investment costs of a private cloud are too demanding, which means that

you have to limit its functionality to the most pressing organization needs. On the other hand, a public cloud is much

cheaper and mostly comes with everything you need, but with a bit of deficiencies. This means that you will the use

the two to cover up each other`s inefficiencies, hence striking a balance. The private cloud will be more expensive but

more secure, while the public cloud will be cheaper, with a wide range of programs and applications, but with more

susceptibility to threats in security.

Easier to Implement IT Policies

People will be always resistant to change, and that is a fact of life. This is because they want to remain in their

comfort zones, and any move against that will be met with resistance. This explains why employees in any

organization will be resistant to any changes in IT, even when the changes are meant to introduce efficiency and

increase productivity. They will therefore always find a way to sabotage your plans, but not with a hybrid cloud

computing system in place. Since the organization has little or no control over the public cloud, it can impose

restrictions on its own in-house built private cloud on the employees. Therefore any programs or applications that

slow down the employees productivity will be restricted on the organization`s private cloud.

The public cloud offers what you need, while the private cloud offers

what you want

Most people have no choice over what they receive on a public cloud, since it is not intended for one specific user, but

for mass users. However users may change this by integrating a private cloud and incorporate what they want but they

seem not to be getting it on the public server. This is arguably the best way to make use of hybrid cloud computing;

making the best use of what you are getting on the public sphere, and creating that which you desire on the private

sphere.

Hybrid cloud computing is like hitting two birds with one stone, which means that it is more beneficial than using

either of the two alone. It is far more rewarding, which is why any prudent organization`s CIO would be wise enough

to adopt it.
