A hybrid cloud is a computing environment that combines a “Public Cloud “with a “Private Cloud” (also called an on-premises data center) where different sorts of data and applications can be shared between them. For a cloud to be Hybrid one Public Cloud is a must.

A hybrid cloud combines a public cloud with a private cloud, while a multi/hybrid cloud combines more than one public cloud with a private cloud. As a result, multi-cloud is thought of as a subset of hybrid clouds.

SEVERAL TYPES OF ENVIRONMENTS FOUND IN HYBRID CLOUDS

Private cloud: Also known as an On-premises cloud, internal or corporate cloud that is completely dedicated to one organization. By using a private cloud, an organization can experience the benefits of cloud computing without sharing resources with other organizations.
There are two types of Private Clouds
• Internal Private Cloud
• Hosted Private Cloud

The difference between the two is that the former (The internal cloud) is maintained and secured by the organization itself. Whereas the latter (Hosted private cloud) is secured and maintained by the third party, still the hosted cloud is private as in both the data center is dedicated to one company. The servers in a private cloud aren’t shared by anyone else’s software or files.
Public cloud: This cloud is secured and maintained by a third-party vendor, they are shared by multiple organizations. Using virtual machines, individual servers may be shared by different companies, a situation that is called “multitenancy” because multiple companies are renting server space within the same physical server.

In what ways do different environments communicate with each other in a hybrid cloud?
As we know “Communication is the key to success” without working connection between clouds (Public and Private) they cannot be termed as HYBRID therefore the KEY here to communicate are three:

• APIs (Application Programming Interfaces)
• VPNs (Virtual Private Networks)
• WANs (Wide Area Networks)

Top 5 Hybrid Cloud Providers:

• Amazon
• Microsoft
• Google
• Cisco
• NetApp

BENEFITS OF HYBRID CLOUD

1. Cost-Saving: It helps the organization to save money both in application and infrastructure. Retaining an internal data hub, such as a private cloud, fully operational can be pricey and time-consuming. By outsourcing some operations to the public cloud, a company can minimize expenditures by not requiring as much technology on-premises.

2. Protect Sensitive Data: All organizations have sensitive data which cannot be shared with anyone which can be stored in a private cloud and can use in the public cloud for the rest of the data.

3. Flexibility: Having access to the services of both the public and private cloud offers companies a variety of options when considering which service is ideal for each specific standard.

4. Scalability: Hybrid cloud helps to increase space, speed, and memory. When there is high traffic on the site then we have access to private and public clouds that can be used to handle it.

5. Hassle-free access to data and applications for remote workers.
