Hybrid Cloud Computing: Pay as you Grow

It encompasses public cloud, private cloud and dedicated servers, working alone or together in any combination in a unified infrastructure, all backed by Fanatical Support. It enables businesses to tailor their architecture to create the best fit for their unique set of applications and workloads. An organization does not need to re-engineer a technology or applications or workload to fit into the cloud, rather it enables businesses to tailor their architecture to create the best fit for their distinctive applications and workloads.

Rackspace emphasizes in having open standards, open sources and open platforms in their activities. It has powered hybrid cloud with the ability to offer dedicated hosting, private cloud, public cloud and also the power to seamlessly move between the three and connect the three. Another layer of hybrid cloud is the capacity to do two out of those three dedicated hosting, private and public cloud in trans premises, off premises and going forward even to third party premises.

The other most important thing is fanatical support, Rackspace believes in going above and beyond the duty to educate clients. All the numbers and strategies are shared with the staff and any kind of constructive descent is encouraged to facilitate idea generation and innovation.

Factors Facilitating Trust in Hybrid Cloud

Some of the fears in the early evolution of cloud computing were related to privacy, security and regulatory compliances.  The other concern in the second generation is about financial benefits and choosing between a CAPEX or OPEX model of payment.

People have learnt over time that a pure public cloud model is not as cheap as a truly hybrid model. Renting a car for infrequent affairs is feasible but owning a car would be a more economical decision for everyday travelling. Same applies to hybrid cloud. A public cloud model follows a pay-as-you-go rule whereas hybrid cloud model is all about pay-as-you-grow. Several people were initially concerned about the security and cost aspects of hybrid cloud and chose to use the public cloud, however later on they realized the benefits of using a hybrid cloud.

Many organizations today use a mix of public and private clouds. While they use public clouds for less sensitive tasks, they prefer to use private clouds for their most vital processing tasks. The CIOs today must find out what is that they are not seeing that cloud can bring. They should focus more on the benefits and new possibilities that hybrid cloud can unlock rather than the technology. Combining the hybrid approach’s advantage of the scalability and cost-effectiveness when compared to a public cloud computing environment it is highly favorable. After all it allows a business these advantages without exposing mission-critical applications and data to third-party vulnerabilities.
