Managing workloads in a hybrid cloud
O ne of the most important tasks required to manage a hybrid cloud environment is to manage a set of workloads that executes a specific set of commands. This is different than a traditional computing platform where it’s assumed that workloads will be executed either on-premises or in a specific remote environment.
