Cisco Hybrid Cloud Data Management With Veeam Platform
Veeam News, Friday, May 5,2023
So much of the discussion about hybrid cloud is focused on moving workloads from data centers to the cloud (typically public cloud, but also managed cloud services). This makes intuitive sense: the cloud offers flexibility and simplicity of services that can be easily scaled up and down as needed.
The most compelling reason is that you only pay for what you use. Let's face it, you can do things in the cloud that you could never imagine doing in a data center.
