Stratus Trusted Cloud Hybrid

Interested in cloud but think it's not a fit because of compliance requirements or other application issues? Check out the hybrid version of Stratus. The hybrid version essentially blends and maximizes the best of a multi-tenant cloud and a dedicated environment. With the hybrid cloud, you can cross-connect existing back-end resources such as databases and other supporting applications to the Stratus Trusted Cloud, providing you with greater flexibility.

The hybrid option allows you to leverage the Stratus Trusted Cloud for web front-end computing power and other resources like network, firewall, load balancing and web servers. In addition, you can cross connect Stratus cloud computing resources directly into your environment to handle overflow situations such as seasonal spikes that require excess compute capacity.

The result is a single, more versatile environment. This is the best fit for companies who have regulatory compliance requirements, or other requirements for which they don’t want to run their whole application environment in the cloud (for instance, a database that has high throughput, low latency I/O requirements).

Attributes:

Traditional dedicated environments cross-connected to a cloud environment, creating a single more versatile environment

Best fit for:

Companies that want to take advantage of the benefits of cloud while maintaining the ability to meet requirements which include the use of a physically separate environment

Regulatory compliance such as PCI

Performance concerns such as large CPU demands as may be required by certain database environments

Existing physical infrastructure has not depreciated but additional capacity is required

Overflow burst capacity
