A hybrid cloud is a cloud computing environment that employs both on-premises and public cloud resources, along with unified management and orchestration tools, to enable flexible data, application mobility, and operational agility across your IT infrastructure.
Hybrid clouds give organizations options for operational and financial flexibility. Businesses can adjust their CAPEX and OPEX infrastructure usage according to workload demand and data center and budget requirements. Cloud resources, for instance, might be used to handle DevOps or AI initiatives, while mission-critical apps remain on-premises. A true hybrid cloud environment also provides greater data-protection options, as well as additional use cases for data.

In this model, businesses leverage both the reliability, efficiency, and security of private cloud and the agility, simplicity, and on-demand consumption of public cloud. In effect, you get the best of both worlds.

Likewise, webscale apps are mostly built in the cloud and migrating them on-prem is difficult. This also poses a challenge for development: On-prem and cloud storage have different features and APIs, so developing an application that runs seamlessly across both is nearly impossible.However, the data landscape is rapidly changing.
