Enterprises are experiencing rising bills from their cloud and network providers. This report recommends how enterprises can use a distributed hybrid cloud model to improve performance, enhance security and streamline data processing to reduce costs and increase productivity.
Enterprises should pursue a distributed hybrid cloud model to improve performance, productivity and reduce costs
Enterprises are increasingly adopting hybrid IT architectures. However, there is no one-size-fits-all model, as they all face similar challenges surrounding security, scalability, performance limitations and cost management.
Cost management is a prevailing issue, with 90% of enterprises experiencing a rise in cloud costs in the last two years. One way to mitigate this is by implementing a distributed hybrid cloud approach, allowing businesses to distribute workloads across the most cost-efficient infrastructure available.
Distributed hybrid cloud also addresses the other challenges enterprises are experiencing by providing security, flexibility and performance improvements. This cloud model should be adopted, but not before ensuring organisational alignment, understanding which workloads to distribute and prioritising effective partnerships.
