☁️ Cloud vs. Hybrid: The Real Story

After architecting 100+ infrastructure migrations, here's what IT leaders need to know:

4 Critical Decision Factors:

1. Cost Reality
Pure Cloud:
- Predictable OpEx
- 30% higher for steady workloads
Hybrid:
- CapEx + OpEx mix
- 45% savings for known loads

2. Performance Profile
Pure Cloud:
- Global reach
- Variable latency
Hybrid:
- Consistent performance
- Location-dependent

3. Security Architecture
Pure Cloud:
- Shared responsibility
- Built-in tools
Hybrid:
- Complete control
- Complex implementation

4. Team Requirements
Pure Cloud:
- Cloud-native skills
- DevOps focus
Hybrid:
- Broader skill set
- Larger team needed

Decision Framework:
- <$1M IT budget = Pure Cloud
- >$1M + regulated = Hybrid
- Global presence = Multi-cloud hybrid
