Need help placing your workload in a Hybrid IT environment?

[Krista_S]

Today, 74% of you are embarking on a Hybrid IT journey.* Make sure you have the tools you need to make the right decisions for your business. 

IT is being stretched in traditional environments to lower operating costs, while at the same time being stretched in new application environments to deliver new products and services faster.

Accelerating time to value pays off

So you might be asking yourself: How quickly can I capitalize on a new idea, seize a new business opportunity or respond to a competitor that threatens my business?

Your Hybrid IT journey encompasses people, process and technology. It spans on-premises and off-premises environments across the data center, private cloud, public cloud and increasingly the edge of the network.

With Hybrid IT comes choice

More quesitons, like: Where will you place your workload in a Hybrid IT environment? Will you select an on-premises private cloud due to specific cost, security or regulatory issues? How do you know when a public cloud is right for a given workload? Is software-as-a-service a consideration? Or, should you simply keep the workload on your existing IT environment and improve what you have?

Ultimately, your decision will be based on your unique requirements and, most likely, will change over time.
