International. According to BGH Tech Partner , 80% of companies have adopted the hybrid cloud, as it allows more secure connections, determine what data will be restricted access and store the information, taking this into account, in public or private clouds.
The hybrid cloud market has an interesting growth forecast. According to data obtained by Mordor Intelligence, the global Hybrid Cloud market is expected to have a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 21.06% during the period of 2021-2026.
Moreover, the consulting firm and marketing researcher said that "the hybrid cloud market has experienced significant overall growth in recent years compared to that of other cloud services, as it offers certain benefits demanded by organizations with a large data set and need for processing."
Another factor to take into account is that, after the pandemic, companies had to adjust their organization based on new remote work habits, maintaining productivity, employee comfort and the safety of each company.
However, this context also meant that connections at a distance, or through other networks, exposed the data and information of each institution to high risks. Faced with this situation, the hybrid cloud began to take center stage.
Andrés Alexander, SVP of the Regional Services and Cloud Cluster at BGH Tech Partner, explained that: "Hybrid cloud provides agility by allowing workloads and data to move between private and public clouds flexibly. That is, it enables you to easily customize the location of resources based on workloads and applications."
That is, this type of cloud enables the dynamic use of resources, whether public or private, available to an organization, taking into account the needs or guidelines it has established. For example, you can configure a certain application to run primarily on private servers until certain parameters are met. At that point you could switch to access your organization's resources from the public cloud system.
Such configuration is especially recommended for organizations that have operations that require different levels of security, because it minimizes privacy and control issues. In this way, operations and data that do not require the highest level of security can be hosted in the public cloud environment, while systems or data that require a higher level of security, or those that the company wants to maintain internally can be contained in the private cloud.
Finally, Alexander said: "Beyond these precisions, the reality is that there is no perfect solution for all companies at the level of IT infrastructure. Each company has a unique set of circumstances. That's why security needs, business maturity, and computing demands play a critical role in deciding the right mix of public and private cloud."
