benefits a business can expect by adopting hybrid cloud
Examines a cloud management platform and discusses why it is
necessary
Walks you through the different kinds of solutions for IT
problems that may arise
Places a focus on considerations for ensuring resiliency,
availability, and scalability when designing hybrid solutions to
prevent system failure and data loss
Covers optimizing the performance of the hybrid cloud as well
