A one-size-fits-all approach through public cloud does not work for the majority of an organization's applications and data, which must stay on-premises or at the edge because of factors such as cost, compliance, control, governance, latency and performance, security, and application entanglement. Thus, it seems only logical that a hybrid model has emerged. However, the hybrid approach can create complexity and operational friction that can slow down your digital transformation efforts if it's not done properly. That's where GDT and HPE Greenlake come in.
