XMission discusses the benefits of hybrid hosting: a flexible hosting option for businesses who do not wish to transition all of the critical data from colocation directly to the cloud. Hybrid works especially well for businesses who will have to maintain servers for security reasons, but still wish to capitalize on the power of the cloud. We hope that you enjoy this slide deck. Please feel free to share it with others. For a complete presentation, please contact Grant Sperry at grant@xmission.com.
