Private clouds have become widely used by organizations, whether deployed onsite or offsite, and are a major factor in business growth. As organizations realize the future of cloud computing lies in hybrid models, private clouds are seen as an integral part in combining private and public clouds. Deploying private clouds can provide significant benefits like 50% lower data storage costs, 25% annual storage growth without increased budgets, and faster provisioning times.
The road to hybrid computing
- 1. Why deploy private cloud in the hybrid cloud era? Whether deployed onsite or offsite, individually or as part of a hybrid, hosted or managed by a third party, private clouds have become a major catalyst for business growth and differentiation while managing highly sensitive information. Today they are dominating the cloud conversation, and the focus is on deployment. The road to hybrid computing Faced with diverse workload requirements, organizations are coming to realize that the future of cloud computing lies in the hybrid space, and private clouds are an integral part.
