Not everyone uses hybrid cloud - what are the drivers away from it?

Compare the Cloud
I think personally the drive is towards Hybrid from Public, people want SLA and Application guarantees..

Is the market actually moving that way or is that what people *ought* to be doing?

completely see that Guy, dappling in public, then looking back into the on-prem potential...seeing that with insurance, travel/transport, banking, pharma

Interesting - thanks.

Let's consider security too - what changes when you look at security in the cloud?

Security is critical in all environments - whether on premise, #Cloud or #Hybrid - with #Cloud environments often MORE secure

Guy Clapperton
There's an issue, though, when smaller businesses *assume* security rather than check.

Doug Clark
security has to be totally embedded in the strategy...not just for cloud but for the entire enterprise model
[-]
Guy Clapperton
Excellent point, Doug.

Bill Mew
many assume on premise is more secure WRONG - your own staff are the main risk and #Cloud providers often have more security skills and better tech

Guy Clapperton
Obviously you have to select the right cloud partner there - I've heard horror stories.
[-]
Bill Mew
Yes - right supplier is essential - It is buyer beware, but there are enough quality providers out there

@borretm can help anyone with their security concerns he's out CTO for IBMSecurity..."cars have brakes to go faster"

Do the benefits outweigh the time and cost of rearchitecting applications for the hybrid cloud?

its a journey

@cloudstuff It is a journey to a more cost effective agile and scalable environment

Doug Clark
you evolve starting with easier workloads...maybe using public or private off-prem for some workloads
[-]
Doug Clark
as you start to see the momentum build you consider the more and more complex legacy estate...maybe at refresh times

Bill Mew
@cloudstuff great point - gradual migration with scalable agile endpoint in mind

Guy Clapperton
In the early days I saw a lot of businesses go on the 'journey' without a destination in mind...

then move them to the most appropriate cloud environment, could be on or off-prem, but fully orchestrated to max the integrational value of the data - system of insight
Bill Mew
Cloud is no longer a cost play - it is about agility, speed and scalability - marketplaces from AWS IBM etc enable this

the differences is that AWS doesn't want to play on premise or in #Hybrid - which is what companies need

agree, it's the balance of internal assets and external services. Using the external cloud to meet with demand for a product or service. Seasonal peaks could require additional resources, but the key is consistency of the delivery
