A recent Avanade study highlighted that, although it is not yet clear how and under what conditions it will be effective and efficient, within 4 years more than half of the Belgian business applications and services will be deployed in a hybrid cloud environment.
The integration of the hybrid cloud within the IT infrastructure is a key success factor when defining a hybrid cloud approach that links to private and public clouds. An optimized integration can only be defined and implemented after determining the criteria to select the most suitable cloud. Those criteria include workloads, security, expected performance, data sovereignty, costs...
NRB Hybrid Cloud approach will demonstrate how this integration can be rapidly defined and implemented. We will explain why and how to choose your cloud approach and show you the benefits of implementing a hybrid cloud strategy.
