Hybrid IT

On-premises control, with cloud flexibility.

A hybrid approach lets you keep control over sensitive data and meet specific security and compliance requirements, while still using the scalability and cost advantages of cloud services. InfoSapient designs and supports hybrid Oracle environments that operate as one.

Hybrid IT architecture An on-premises environment holding sensitive data, legacy applications, and predictable workloads connects over private, secure links to a cloud environment that handles variable workloads, scalable capacity, and recovery. Monitoring, security policy, and data protection span both.

Key factors

When a hybrid approach makes sense.

Hybrid IT suits organizations that want cloud capabilities without giving up the control, compliance, or legacy systems that keep them on-premises.

Data security and compliance

Keep sensitive data where it must stay

If you handle sensitive data or must meet strict security and compliance regulations, a hybrid approach keeps that data on-premises while cloud services support other parts of your infrastructure.

Cost and scalability

Pay for variable demand only when it appears

Cloud services can absorb variable workloads while on-premises infrastructure handles predictable ones. That helps avoid overprovisioning and can reduce overall IT costs.

Flexibility and agility

The right platform for each workload

A hybrid infrastructure lets you choose the best option for each workload, adapt as business needs change, and adopt new technology as it becomes available.

Legacy systems and applications

Keep what can’t easily move

When you depend on legacy systems or applications that are difficult to migrate, a hybrid approach keeps them running while you adopt cloud services elsewhere.

What we engineer

Two environments that behave like one.

The hard part of hybrid IT is the seams between environments. We design them deliberately.

  • Workload placement

    Workloads distributed according to sensitivity, performance needs, and cost.

  • Interoperability and connectivity

    Secure, reliable network connections between data centers and cloud platforms.

  • Security and compliance

    Consistent controls and compliant designs across every environment.

  • Performance and monitoring

    Visibility into performance where tiers span locations and depend on one another.

  • Data protection

    Backup and recovery that cover data wherever it lives.

  • Manageability

    One operational approach, so a hybrid estate doesn’t double the management work.

Infrastructure models

Compare the other models.

Most environments combine more than one. We help you decide which workloads belong where.

OCI · AWS · Azure · Google Cloud

Cloud

Migration to and between cloud platforms, with short- or long-term management once workloads are running.

Cloud infrastructure

Virtualization · Oracle Linux KVM

On-premises

Consolidated, well-governed platforms in your own data center, designed with performance and licensing in mind.

Virtualization

EBS Platform as a Service

A managed platform for Oracle E-Business Suite. You keep ownership of the application and data; we run the infrastructure.
