A Hybrid Cloud combines on-premises infrastructure (private cloud) with public cloud services such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.

The two environments are connected so that data and applications can work across both environments.

1. Security – Sensitive data can remain on-premises.
   


2. Flexibility – Companies can use public cloud resources when needed.
   


3. Cost optimization – Avoid moving everything to the cloud.
   


4. Compliance – Some data may need to remain in a specific environment.
   


5. Scalability – Use public cloud resources when workload increases.
