We believe ‘cloud first’ is now standard The market is maturing – entering plateau No ‘solution’ as such, more principles We believe old partner models are changing We believe ‘emerging markets’ will drive innovation by

necessity IT Organisational change is the biggest challenge to

avoiding disruption Agility is now more critical than ever

Why we do what we do

www.ShapeBlue.com

Between 2010 and today workloads have changed Economic conditions were a driver for adoption and

market consolidation Today need to support both traditional and cloud era

loads Enterprise apps not disappearing overnight however…. A hybrid model addresses both – but hard to achieve

in reality Stick to the ‘Open’ principles to give flexibility.

Changing workloads

The Hybrid approach

Understand the barriers1. Trust, Security & protection

2. Data location & jurisdiction

3. Interoperability & portability

Understand the barriersTrust, Security & protection

Just because it’s cloud doesn’t mean you shouldn’t choose carefullyAutomation doesn’t have to mean no relationshipIts still infrastructure

27

Understand the barriersData location & jurisdiction

Theres more to cloud than Amazon

Localised cloud services

Jurisdiction specific services

Understand the barriersInteroperability & portability

Open Standards driven by open source

Ask the question

www.ShapeBlue.com

Two views:

1. A ‘solution’2. A ‘combination’ of private and public

We believe the combination is the key.

What is Hybrid?
