4 Reasons to Use Data Fabric for Your Hybrid-Cloud

November 13, 2017

IT infrastructures are evolving and are no longer static entities marked by predictable growth. Forrester Research says hybrid-clouds are gaining widespread market adoption because they leverage existing IT resources while integrating into public and private cloud environments. They enable you to retain greater visibility over your data and improve the customer experience IDG Research shows using hybrid-clouds you’re three times more likely to achieve your business goals.

Hybrid-Cloud: The Good and The Bad

The beauty of hybrid-cloud storage is that it leverages the power of cloud while recognising (and working with) its limitations. Effective hybrid-cloud storage combines all elements in your IT infrastructure to create greater overall value, better performance and cost-savings.

However…

The problem with today’s hybrid-clouds is that they are a mix of isolated, incompatible data silos, which can make moving data from one cloud to another difficult. Analysis from IDG Research suggests 78% of cloud users say it’s critical or extremely important to manage data across multiple clouds.
