Spotlight on hybrid cloud infrastructure Spotlight on hybrid cloud infrastructure

All-in cloud might be your ultimate goal, but hybrid is the reality for many enterprises, at least for the foreseeable future.

So how do you efficiently manage both your cloud and on-premise infrastructure? How do you build a unified hybrid cloud platform?

For those with more advanced needs, how do you optimise your hybrid environments? What are your next steps in building software-defined data centre?

iTnews will provide some answers to these questions in our Spotlight on Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure, coinciding with VMware’s vFORUM 2016 in Sydney on 9-10 November.

This Spotlight is supported by StorageCraft.
