Our hybrid cloud solutions combine elements of the Premier Cloud while retaining physical infrastructure onsite, giving you the best of both worlds.

A hybrid cloud enables you to retain full control of your onsite hardware, but still access the latest Microsoft Exchange Server software within the Premier Cloud. It is also an ideal stepping stone towards a cloud infrastructure, allowing you to migrate elements of your IT systems to a cloud platform, over time.

Why use a hybrid cloud solution?

• Existing costly infrastructure 
  You may have already invested in your systems and infrastructure that you rely on to provide in-house resources, and these cannot simply be suddenly dropped in favour of a cloud solution. A hybrid cloud can help you to incorporate elements of the cloud within your existing IT infrastructure

• Test the Premier Cloud before adopting a full solution
  We understand that the concept of moving your entire IT infrastructure to a new environment can be daunting, and it is only right that you should test the water before committing to such a significant change in your IT processes. A hybrid cloud is ideal for phased implementation of new technologies into your existing infrastructure
  
  
• Backup strategy and archiving
  Rather than keep paying for additional hardware for data storage, you can use the cloud to archive data that is not frequently used but is taking up valuable space and resources on your existing infrastructure. The Premier Cloud also features automated offsite backup, eliminating the need to rely on a tape backup solution

• Enhanced security
  Many organisations prefer to keep sensitive customer or donor data within their own data centre or infrastructure, but still want to reap the benefits of the Premier Cloud. A hybrid cloud infrastructure is a perfect balance between the two solutions
  
  
• Manage peak workloads
  If your business typically experiences seasonal peaks, or you frequently employ short term staff to manage peak workloads, a hybrid cloud allows you to instantly scale resources up and down according to need. You can use all the latest Microsoft Applications on a per user per month basis, without interruption to your existing IT infrastructure
