The Role of Dedicated Cloud Infrastructure in Hybrid and Multicloud Architectures

This IDC Perspective explores the role that a private, dedicated cloud infrastructure plays in hybrid and multicloud architectures to harness additional business value while increasing the agility of an organization. It describes the capabilities of the three architectures and provides recommendations on how to successfully implement them within an organization. "Organizations want to take advantage of best-of-breed services offered by the various public clouds while maintaining a private, cloud-like experience that can serve as a home base for capturing new insights derived from their data and AI," explains Rob Tiffany, research director, Dedicated Cloud Infrastructure at IDC.
