As the Azure Marketplace is filled, we now have to talk about scenarios where hybrid cloud solution designs make sense. In general, it is quite easy to define where we need hybrid solution designs:
- Data sovereignty
- Sensitive data
- Regulations
- Customizations
- Legacy support
Hybrid cloud solution, therefore, can be defined as a business- and law-driven cloud solution as nobody really needs it but there are reasons defined by the business and the law that may lead to it.
Especially with high sensitive data, there is often the requirement in some business areas where data needs to be in the building, the county, or the country, and there is no change to save it somewhere else as if this intellectual property is lost, the company could close because they may lose their patents and business trademarks.
