What Is The Difference Between Private, Public, And Hybrid Cloud? (VIDEO)

 A recent conversation on digital transformation with Ivo Koerner, VP of IBM Systems, examined the impact of cloud computing. Examined were the three models of cloud – public, private and hybrid – that organizations are adopting in order to effectively work with big data and artificial intelligence in order to drive efficiency and growth.

All three models share similarities, allowing you to store and manage large datasets and deploy advanced applications without needing to own – or even see – the infrastructure they are running on, and only paying for what you use. However, there are important differences that mean it is essential to choose the one that best fits your needs.

Here’s a free resource dedicated to help you with all the necessary decisions in implementing a cloud migration strategy (public, private, hybrid, multi - including security)....taking all the potential stress out of the picture.
