Cloud Consulting

A hybrid cloud is a cloud computing solution that combines public cloud and on-premises infrastructure including private cloud by allowing data and apps to be shared between them. A hybrid cloud gives businesses more deployment options and greater flexibility to scale computing resources. Hybrid cloud adoption takes advantage of cloud innovation while offering interoperability with on-premises environment. With multi-cloud solutions and edge computing emerging in recent years, a hybrid cloud is evolving to include multi-cloud environments and IT edge infrastructure. Organizations choose a hybrid cloud approach for many reasons, including meeting regulatory and data sovereignty requirements, maximizing on-prem technology investments, addressing low-latency and edge workloads, and also increasing resilience and business continuity. EIL can help you reap the benefits hybrid cloud computing solutions with both local and cloud backups for disaster recovery and business continuity.

Private cloud architecture is essentially the aggregation of all resources in a data center into one pool of resources. Through virtualization of the hardware components, companies increasing efficiency and utilization SDN for advanced routing, encryption, or network filters, and real-time analytics for network speed optimization. Private cloud solutions are provided by IT managed services provider and leverage software solutions from Microsoft, VMware, Nutanix, and more. Enterprise-grade open source solutions are available from Red Hat and others. Private cloud solutions allow companies to architect a data center using software-defined networking (SDN solutions) and virtualization (virtual machine solutions, or “VMs”). A private cloud can span to include multiple server locations or leased space in a colocation facility. Private cloud solutions provide the software tools for complex network orchestration on bare-metal servers where the security of data can be managed on the premises of a business directly. Learn how you can leverage the leading cloud solution, EIL’s Secure Private cloud, for your business’ benefit.

The public cloud is defined as cloud computing services offered by third-party providers over the Internet, thus making them available to anyone who wants to use or purchase them. Public cloud solutions may be free or sold on-demand, thus allowing businesses to pay only per usage for the CPU cycles, storage, or the bandwidth that they consume. Unlike private cloud solutions, public clouds can save organizations from expensive costs of having to purchase, manage, and maintain on-premises hardware and application infrastructure in a data center. A cloud service provider is held responsible for all management and maintenance of the public cloud computing system. Public clouds can also be deployed more rapidly than on-premises infrastructures with an endlessly scalable platform. Every employee and user of a company can use the same application from any office or branch using their device of choice as long as they have access to the Internet. Although security concerns have been raised over public cloud adoption, when implemented properly, a public cloud enablement solution can be as secure as the most properly-managed private cloud implementation if the cloud provider uses the proper security methods, like an intrusion detection and prevention system (IDPS).
