I’ve said it before. For years, I’ve been recommending a hybrid work environment to my clients—often in conversations with IT managers who were strong believers in the Cloud trend. Today, market evidence proves me right.

There are workloads that clearly make sense in the Cloud—like email, collaborative applications, or the third backup copy. But your business core (especially if you’re in the industrial sector) should stay close—very close—to your production. It’s a matter of security, latency, and cost.

I rely on cutting-edge technologies like NetApp storage, which is the best fit to help my clients “come back home” and keep in the Cloud only what truly belongs there—based on business needs and logic, not trends.

Are you sure your Cloud strategy is really aligned with your business priorities?
