Cloud Hybrid Architectures

Hybrid cloud architectures combine on-premises systems with public and private cloud services. This approach gives businesses flexibility, they can keep sensitive data in-house while using the cloud for scalability and innovation. AWS supports hybrid setups with services like Outposts (bringing AWS infrastructure on-premises), Direct Connect (secure connections), and Storage Gateway (linking local storage to the cloud). It’s like having both a home office and access to a global coworking space, secure, flexible, and efficient. If a hospital uses a hybrid cloud to store patient records locally but runs analytics in the cloud, what’s the main benefit?
