Hybrid cloud combines public cloud and private cloud and is the main model and development direction of cloud computing in recent years. We already know that private enterprises are mainly for enterprise users. For security reasons, enterprises prefer to store data in private clouds, but at the same time they hope to obtain the computing resources of public clouds. In this case, hybrid clouds are increasingly used Adopted by many, it mixes and matches public clouds and private clouds to obtain the best results. This personalized solution achieves the purpose of saving money and security. Industry analysis company IDC predicts that the global cloud computing market as a whole will reach US$118 billion in 2015. If this growth were achieved in 2015, it would represent an increase of more than 23.1% from the $95.8 billion market in 2014. At the same time, market research organization TechnologyBusinessResearch predicts that in 2015, the private cloud market is expected to grow by 35%, and the public cloud is expected to grow by 25%. And hybrid cloud will grow by 50%. From the data point of view, hybrid cloud has become the strongest driving force for the growth of cloud computing. Discussions about hybrid cloud have increased in 2014, so why has hybrid cloud experienced such a substantial growth? In this regard, Chen Yuanqiang, CTO of Multi-Backup, believes that it can be generally attributed to three reasons: Safety factors With the strong momentum of BYOD deployment, security issues are receiving more and more attention. The potential risks posed by employees using related devices and applications that are not authorized by the enterprise at work are obvious. Many enterprises, especially those that are new to cloud computing, do not want to take away important information based on security considerations when choosing a cloud environment. The information is sent to an external public cloud server. The "cloud" + "end" model provided by hybrid cloud can effectively separate the core data of an enterprise and improve security through local and cloud encryption. According to IDC's survey of 600 companies in 6 countries and regions in the Asia-Pacific region, the applications most likely to be placed on the public cloud include VoIP applications, collaborative applications, application development, etc., while CRM, ERP, OLTP, decision support, enterprise People still tend to put applications such as email, IT infrastructure, storage and storage management, Web infrastructure, scientific research and engineering on private clouds. Cost factors From a long-term perspective, the cloud can greatly save corporate costs. Hybrid cloud does not always start from scratch. It can fully draw on public cloud resources and private clouds built or not built by the enterprise. Enterprises can move existing applications to the cloud. The cost of this process is Often less than rebuilding a program. Even a billionaire will never ignore the word "cheap". This principle is the key to Wal-Mart's success and applies to every company. On the other hand, it is very important to bring new services and applications to the market quickly. At this point, the advantages of hybrid cloud are obviously more obvious. Scalability Since the size of a private cloud is ultimately limited by the overall available hardware, using a hybrid cloud can take advantage of the nearly unlimited scalability of the public cloud. This has two benefits for businesses. First, they can quickly scale their IT operations to respond to unexpected changes while maintaining high-speed performance. Second, they can move non-sensitive functions to the public domain, reducing the need for their internal private cloud. |
