Hybrid-cloud vs multi-cloud: what's the difference?
Many businesses often confuse hybrid-cloud and multi-cloud strategies.
- Hybrid-cloud combines private infrastructure (on-premises or dedicated servers) with public cloud services.
- Multi-cloud, on the other hand, involves using multiple public cloud providers simultaneously.
Hybrid-cloud solutions are great for businesses requiring data locality, compliance, or performance on sensitive workloads. Multi-cloud solutions prioritize flexibility, availability, and cost optimization.
