Orchestrating a complex IT
estate can be daunting
As organizations attempt to strike a balance between keeping IT services on‑premises
and moving to the public cloud, a logical middle ground has emerged—the hybrid
cloud. This cloud model combines public and private cloud into one cohesive
environment, allowing you to take advantage of pay‑per‑use pricing, the scalability and
flexibility of cloud computing, and the security of dedicated hardware. Flexera reports
that eighty‑two percent of enterprises are taking a hybrid approach, combining the
use of both public and private clouds.

Yet, a hybrid cloud environment can create complexity and operational friction that
can slow down your digital transformation efforts. Security, managing cloud spend,
and governance rank as top three cloud challenges for organizations.

Besides,
unrealized agility, complex IT operations, and the inability to control risks can hold
back your hybrid cloud strategy.
The HPE GreenLake platform allows you to break through these challenges by
delivering cloud services at your edge, colocation facilities, and data center, and a
single, integrated software platform—HPE GreenLake—to control and operate your
entire hybrid environment.
What does hybrid cloud done right look like?
1. A consistent cloud experience for managing all apps and workloads
2. On‑demand access to resources and insights for high‑velocity innovation
3. Visibility, compliance, and control across the IT estate
