What is Hybrid Cloud?

Cloud computing has evolved enormously in recent years, including concepts such as the hybrid cloud, referring to environments that use both public and private cloud services and thus meet the needs of companies that need to adapt to the requirements of your customers.

Actually there are only two types of deployments in the cloud: public and private, but most companies will use a combination of private computing resources (located in data centers and private clouds) and public services. The mixture of these two environments is what gives rise to a hybrid cloud.

Public cloud
The public cloud is a set of servers, networks, storage, services and applications that are owned and controlled by a third party but made available to other companies or individuals. These commercial providers create highly scalable data centers hiding the details and complications of this infrastructure from their customers.

Public clouds are viable because they offer storage and computing services by optimizing their hardware and software to adapt to these specific tasks.

Private cloud
The private cloud is a set of servers, networks, storage, services and applications that are owned and controlled by a company and made available to its employees, partners and customers. It can also be that this infrastructure is created and managed by a third party that makes it available to a specific company exclusively.

The private cloud is a controlled environment and is not open to public use. Thus, its resources are always located behind a firewall and there is usually a high degree of automation in its management and security.

Hybrid cloud
The hybrid cloud is a combination of private cloud together with the use of some public cloud services , where there are some points of interconnection between both environments. The objective is to combine services and data to create a unique, automated and well-managed environment.

In any case not all uses of private and public clouds can be considered hybrid clouds. Only those that add value when used together would fall into this category.

I hope this info helps!

The Hybrid Cloud is a model in which any on-premise Cloud instances (used for internal use inside the organization) are in the same IT infrastructure with any Cloud servers created for public use.

As the name suggests Hybrid cloud is a combination of public and private cloud set-up. Virtualization process abstracts the resources and groups them into a cloud environments. Hybrid cloud infrastructure consists of a open infrastructure as a service (IaaS) platform, a private server farm or data center and a secured network connectivity.

Hybrid cloud is the specific part of cloud hosting domain.

Hybrid cloud leverages the benefits of public, private and other community cloud technologies to create a unique and more valuable computing environment with enhanced features.
Benefits of Hybrid Cloud :
-Cost-efficient
-Secured and reliable
-Scalable
-Redundant
-Isolation

In simple terms i can say that hybrid cloud environment uses a mix of on premise, private cloud and third party, public cloud services with orchestration between the two platforms. Depending upon the workloads that move between the private and public clouds the computing needs and the costs change. In short hybrid cloud offers more flexibity and more data deployment options.

As the name says itself, the Hybrid cloud is a combination of public and private cloud set-up. The virtualization process abstracts the resources and groups them into a cloud environment that is known as a hybrid cloud.

I can give you a simple example for Hybrid cloud.

VMware is private cloud and AWS, Google are public clouds. Hybrid cloud is a situation where companies use both private and public clouds for their business needs.
