Hybrid Cloud
 
So, what is a hybrid cloud? The term describes configurations that combine virtual and physical, colocated assets—for example, a mostly virtualized environment that requires physical servers, routers, or other hardware such as a network appliance acting as a firewall or spam filter.
 
iland Hybrid Cloud applications:
• Software requiring specialized hardware
• Complex SaaS distribution needs
• Legacy software
• DR environments requiring hardware
• Colocated customer/vender needs
• Enterprise data warehouse
• Corporate ERP systems
• Credit card processing system
• Certain VoIP applications
• R&D or other highly confidential data
• Operating systems not available in the cloud

 

There’s two sides to every cloud
The benefits of virtualization in a scalable, flexible cloud infrastructure are undeniable. But for many reasons not everything can or will be virtualized. This leaves IT organizations with the need to not just support physical servers and a virtual infrastructure, but ensure the integration of the two.
 
Reasons for hybrid architecture
The iland Hybrid Cloud© can provide security, costs savings, and scalability while meeting specific business and technical needs. Some of the commonly cited needs for the iland Hybrid Cloud solution include security, technical and operational requirements, and intellectual property issues.
 
How it works
iland supports hybrid virtual and physical solutions with colocationconnectivity, and managed services at all iland Cloud Infrastructure Datacenters. Whether customers require physical servers, routers, load balancers, or other hardware, iland provides solutions to integrate these physical devices into the overall architecture.
