As technology continues to disrupt business models and markets, digital transformation is critical for organizations that want to remain innovative, competitive, secure, and agile. Cloud computing is part of this transformation. From lower costs to higher flexibility and speed, it’s not hard to see why more companies are building or moving applications and computing infrastructure to the public cloud than ever before.

Amid this shift, many companies are looking to use a combination of private and public clouds, with hybrid cloud capabilities that orchestrate a mix of on-premises and off-premises resources. However, most data centers aren’t sufficiently modernized to enable a hybrid cloud approach for the automated
delivery and management of IT services.
