Today as enterprise community engages itself towards better realization of their profiting potential, there are clear demands that IT transformation places on organizations that want to provide IT as a service (ITaaS).
These demands do make public cloud solutions very tempting, however a hybrid approach that combines private cloud deployments with public cloud services seems to deliver exactly what these organisations look for and fit their goals. So when enterprise look for ITaaS applications, a Hybrid Cloud approach can provide the right platform for better way to transform their IT infrastructure.
And hence, many of the organisations plan to operate in a typical hybrid cloud environment that can take care of their specific security requirements and the needs of the business scenarios, delivering the right balance between private and public cloud infrastructure.
When a CIO compares private to public, it emerges that the use cases and workloads that enterprise are considering for the public cloud today are not necessarily only data driven but there are a set of other drivers for instance, there are public cloud use cases that come from test or development space where it becomes even better to have a public cloud model and considerably save on the CapEx part.
Most of the times, it is the enterprise cloud user workload that helps a CIO make that all important decision to go with a private or a public cloud model. Moving forward, enterprise community is making a lot more effort now to understand their workload pattern so that better cloud related decisions can be made.
