This document provides an overview of hybrid cloud platforms for businesses. It begins with an introduction to cloud computing and defines a hybrid cloud as a composition of two or more cloud models (private, public, community) that remain distinct but are connected. The main advantages for businesses are reducing infrastructure costs, gaining flexibility, and transforming IT costs from capital to operational expenses. Global spending on cloud services is growing significantly with software as a service being the largest segment. Major hybrid cloud providers are described along with how their solutions are positioned in terms of capabilities and partnerships. Adopting a hybrid cloud allows companies to leverage existing infrastructure alongside public cloud benefits while keeping critical applications secure.
