AWS Outposts Service Ready Validation For Cloudian Hyperstore Enables Hybrid Cloud

By Amit Rawlani

Hybrid cloud is a practical solution for enterprises who want the flexibility of the public cloud but also need on-premises data centers for use cases like low latency access or local data residency. But maintaining a hybrid cloud environment is not easy. It means more tools and more work for IT teams. AWS Outposts is a solution that brings AWS APIs, tools, and infrastructure to on-premises data centers to simplify hybrid cloud management.

The Challenges of Hybrid Cloud

The accessibility, scalability, and ease of use of the cloud have changed the expectations for on-premises data centers. Businesses want cloud-like functionalities in their local facilities. When the Evaluator Group surveyed organizations about their objectives for hybrid cloud adoption, the top three reasons were:

  • Deliver a public cloud ‘experience’ using on-premises IT resources
  • Develop and deploy ‘cloud-native’ applications
  • Better control overall computing costs (compute and storage)

But supporting a cloud-like experience on-premises is a monumental undertaking for enterprise IT teams. They need additional tools and resources to support cloud-native applications. They have to ensure data security. They have to resolve conflicts between on-premises and public clouds while keeping track of performance and cost issues. And maintaining the various environments adds complexity and puts a heavy burden on the IT staff.
