Abstract In the quest for enhanced agility and continuous innovation, the fusion of existing on-premises systems with hybrid cloud environments is increasingly becoming a critical strategy for enterprises. This white paper delves into the techniques employed to transition from traditional infrastructure to a hybrid cloud setup, underscoring the need for a smooth digital evolution. Key advantages of adopting a hybrid cloud strategy, such as scalable architecture, cost savings, and adherence to data sovereignty regulations, are examined. The paper addresses the complexities encountered during the migration process and discusses the implementation of smart resource allocation to maximize operational efficiency. Case studies, including IBM's model for hybrid cloud deployment, are presented to shed light on effective practices and the opportunities they present for business expansion.
Hybrid cloud computing blends on-premises resources with cloud services to facilitate workload portability, balanced computing loads, and enhanced security. A hybrid setup may consist of a combination of one public and one private cloud, multiple private clouds, or several public clouds, tailored to meet specific needs. Public clouds, typically managed by third-party providers such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, have historically operated off-premises and deliver services via the internet. Private clouds, on the other hand, provide computing services to a select group of users, either over the internet or within a secure internal network, and have traditionally been on-premises. However, this landscape is evolving; public clouds are increasingly being hosted in customers' on-premises data centers, while private clouds are expanding into off-premises, vendor-managed data centers. Consequently, the architecture of cloud environments is becoming more intricate. The hybrid cloud model mitigates the risk of exposing sensitive data by maintaining critical information on private infrastructure while leveraging public clouds for less sensitive data. The primary advantage of hybrid clouds is the secure accessibility of data coupled with the appealing features of public cloud services. In this survey, we dissect the multifaceted aspects of hybrid cloud computing, a field with significant promise. We delve into security challenges and solutions within the hybrid cloud and examine the role of artificial intelligence. Our goal is not to introduce novel discoveries but to identify possible avenues for future research.
