Hybrid cloud refers to a mixed computing, storage, and services environment made up of on-premises infrastructure, private cloud services, and a public cloud.

Hybrid cloud is also particularly valuable for dynamic or highly changeable workloads

Advantages:

• • Agility- the need to adapt and change direction quickly in a core principle of a digital business. (allows for changing between workplace and remote)
  • Improves scalability- cloud allows for increased automation so that you can adjust your cloud settings to respond automatically to changes
  • Improves security and risk management- a business can have crucial control over their data and improved security by reducing the potential exposure of data. You can choose where to house their data and workloads based on compliance, policy, or security requirements
