Hybrid Cloud Series: Connect, Modernize, Secure

Key Points

  • Sai Venom, an IBM developer advocate, introduces a three‑part video series that dives into the fundamentals and advanced concepts of hybrid cloud architectures.
  • He highlights that research predicts 75 % of non‑cloud applications will migrate to the cloud within three years, underscoring the urgency for organizations to develop a hybrid cloud strategy.
  • Part 1 focuses on connectivity and interoperability, stressing the need for secure links between on‑prem, private, and public clouds using tools such as Linux containers, Kubernetes, multi‑cluster managers, and messaging brokers.
  • Part 2 covers modernization, showing how legacy monolithic applications can be broken down and moved to public clouds to exploit scalable resources and outlining strategies for this transformation.
  • Part 3 addresses security, emphasizing solutions that protect data and meet strict privacy regulations while allowing a seamless and safe transition of assets across on‑prem, private, and public cloud environments.

0:00hi everyone my name is sai venom and I'm 0:02a developer advocate with IBM today I'm 0:05excited to introduce a three-part video 0:07series on hybrid cloud architectures 0:09hybrid cloud is a concept that's been 0:11around for quite some time but we're 0:13finding that it's becoming increasingly 0:15used to architect and modernize existing 0:18or legacy applications according to 0:21research we found that 75% of non cloud 0:25applications will be moving to the cloud 0:27in the next three years this goes to say 0:30that if you're not already thinking 0:31about your hybrid cloud strategy you may 0:33be falling behind if you want to learn 0:36more about the basics of hybrid cloud 0:38check out my hybrid cloud explained 0:39video where I cover the basic concepts 0:42of all hybrid cloud architectures in 0:44this three-part series I want to dive 0:46deeper and hit on key concepts that make 0:49up a hybrid cloud architecture and to do 0:52that we're going to start with part 1 of 0:54this video series which is going to be 0:56connect connectivity and 0:59interoperability our core concepts of 1:03hybrid cloud architectures you can 1:05imagine that you have existing 1:07applications that may be running on Prem 1:13working with maybe a private cloud 1:20and you can also imagine you'd be taking 1:23advantage of public cloud as well and 1:26you have services that are running 1:28across all of these environments we need 1:31a way to securely connect them to one 1:33another so taking advantage of solutions 1:36open-source solutions that we have 1:38things like Linux based containers 1:40kubernetes is steo as well as multi 1:45cluster management tools message crews 1:48brokers you know the list is endless but 1:51there's a lot of solutions out there 1:52when used properly help you hit that 1:55connectivity that you need with hybrid 1:57cloud architectures in part two we want 2:00to talk about modernization so we'll be 2:02switching gears a little bit here you 2:10can imagine that with existing 2:12applications that you may have you may 2:15have a monolithic application that you 2:16want to break apart and move to a public 2:19cloud and that might allow you to take 2:21better advantage of scaling that public 2:24environments offer that's a very simple 2:26use case and and one of many when it 2:28comes to modernizing your applications 2:30in part two I'm going to hit on 2:32strategies to modernize those legacy 2:34applications which is a core part of 2:36hybrid cloud architectures in part three 2:40we want to talk about security we're 2:46finding that you know every year you're 2:48hearing about a different data breach 2:50and we're hearing about privacy 2:52regulations that are becoming 2:53increasingly more strict being imposed 2:55on companies the fact is moving to hyper 2:58cloud might scare some folks but we have 3:01the right solutions to ensure that you 3:02can take advantage of your existing 3:04on-premise 'its the security and and the 3:07ease of use that you have there while 3:09securely moving some of your assets to a 3:12public or even a private cloud this 3:15allows you to kind of have the comfort 3:17of taking advantage of all the resources 3:19you have on public cloud while still 3:21maintaining the security that's required 3:23of your architectures I believe that 3:26this three-part series is going to help 3:28tackle the three major issues that you 3:31may have when architecting your hybrid 3:33cloud 3:33locations as always we're always 3:35checking for your comments and your 3:37feedback and if you have any other 3:38topics that you'd like us to cover in 3:40light boarding videos please let us know 3:42below be sure to subscribe and stay 3:44tuned for future videos in this series 3:46and if you want to get started on your 3:47hybrid cloud architecture journey right 3:49now go ahead and check out some of the 3:51links that we have below and the videos 3:53that we have lined up thank you
