Today's IT leaders are under pressure to operate
at a speed and scale much greater than before.
As the business demands support for more complex
workloads, using larger volumes of more diverse
data, often spread across a vast range of systems and
applications, IT must modernize to keep up.
An essential element of every IT modernization initiative
is the hybrid cloud, which is itself complex to set up and
manage. Although it combines the benefits of cloud and
on-premises IT, it still retains the challenges of both.
Many companies wrestle with costly over-provisioning,
operational inefficiencies, talent shortages, and
unpredictable costs.
With so many solutions and approaches to choose from,
IT leaders have a lot to consider as they attempt to
create a hybrid cloud strategy that will meet changing
and expanding IT needs. This guide outlines unique
features of HPE's solution portfolio—much of which
can be delivered on-premises or as a service—that make
it the ideal choice to support intelligent hybrid cloud
deployments, across three key challenge areas.
