Colo vs. cloud? Here at Evoque, we believe this is a false dichotomy. We know the reality is colocation and cloud!
In this blog, we’re going to discuss the benefits of the cloud, and the benefits of colocation, and discuss how the hybrid cloud might provide a well-rounded architecture for your organization.
Whether you utilize the public or private cloud, there are a number of benefits that create maximum application agility for certain workloads. For example, some benefits of cloud data storage may include:
Better together cloud and colocation can provide the ideal ecosystem for application and business success.
Colocation — also known as colo — offers a secure, physical data center location. Colocation may be a good option for your organization for a number of reasons, including:
While the cloud works for every organization, not every application is the right fit for the cloud, which is why it’s crucial to have options for your workload through the hybrid cloud.
The hybrid cloud consists of a combination of cloud, colocation, or on-premise solutions. This approach changes the colocation vs. cloud discussion and instead asks how these solutions can be utilized together.
This is one way that organizations can utilize an application-first approach to ensure their workloads are optimized.
