What are the best ways to manage data in a hybrid cloud environment?

When it comes to data management, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. The best way to approach data management in a hybrid cloud environment is first to identify your needs and then find a solution that meets those needs. Here are a few best practices to remember when starting your journey in a hybrid cloud environment.

Data Accessibility

Data access can be difficult for companies because data is often unstructured and stored in different places. IT departments can access this data in real-time with the right budget or expertise. However, it is possible to access data stored on-site and off-site in a hybrid cloud environment by making it available in a restricted environment. Storing frequently used data closer to applications or users can improve processing time and reduce latency, without investing in local infrastructure. This can be done by identifying which data is used most often and keeping it accessible to the application or user.

Data Analytics

As businesses strive for data-driven decision-making, they are turning to data oceans – a consolidated repository of internal and external data sources. By reducing the effort it takes to source and combine data, data teams can explore new analytical models and gain greater insights into decision-making. With efficient data analysis tools, businesses can better use their data to improve their bottom line.

Data Migration

Organizations can use public, private, and hybrid cloud solutions when migrating their storage to save money on infrastructure costs and avoid large capital expenditures. However, moving data from one storage location to another will only add complexity later. To prevent this, organizations should back up their data and use disaster recovery solutions and analytics to ensure a smooth transition. It is always best to follow a data-driven approach when migrating data, as this will help ensure that you get maximum value from your data.

Data Compliance

Combining cloud and on-premises computing can ease some of the critical regulatory requirements that come with holding onto data. For example, out-of-service systems may leave behind unassociated databases, many of which are valuable and have been around for a long time. This can create a data gap for analytic personnel and present security and compliance risks to organizations. Governments and regulatory bodies worldwide are collaborating with cloud service providers to establish standards for data retention periods and security measures, with teams of specialists leading the process. Furthermore, cloud-based data storage can also tackle the difficulties involved with data residency and data sovereignty rules, which become even more intricate as data crosses international lines.
