What is a Hybrid Cloud?
The hybrid cloud is a popular choice for companies that want flexibility in their IT configuration. It allows companies and individuals to take advantage of moving some operations to the cloud while keeping others on-premises.

A hybrid solution isn't just the difference between full cloud and on-premises. Part of the hybrid approach can use multiple cloud providers and SaaS (Service as a Software) models. For example, you may find some functionality that performs better on one provider and better database tools on another.

Choosing the Right Hybrid Cloud Migration Strategy
Companies have many hybrid configuration scenarios to choose from. These choices give businesses the flexibility to determine the right mix of technologies and platforms that best fit their needs. At LucidPoint, we have the expertise to help determine that mix, and we can guide your hybrid cloud migration strategy.

Hybrid cloud migration starts by determining which components of your operations will remain on-premises and which will be moved to the cloud. This often slows down the migration to the cloud, but our experts will help you through the entire process.
