How to Make Sense of Your Hybrid Cloud Architecture

Hybrid cloud architectures are becoming increasingly common among enterprises, with 69% expected to use one by next year. This approach combines on-premises, public cloud, and private cloud options to meet the demands of customer experience. However, hybrid clouds bring more complexity as IT departments face various choices and comparisons. Balancing the right mix of clouds based on company goals, risk tolerance, application development needs, and budget is crucial. Hybrid clouds enable enterprises to take advantage of the pros of each cloud while minimizing risks and meeting compliance needs. An enterprise data layer that sits on top of multi-cloud and hybrid cloud architectures can address three major concerns: inconsistent data models, vendor lock-in, and data silos. DataStax Enterprise Active Everywhere architecture enables enterprises to build a consistent enterprise data layer across on-premises, hybrid cloud, and multi-cloud environments, eliminating data silos and accelerating hybrid/multi-cloud deployments.
