About this video

NetworkChuck argues you need to learn hybrid cloud because not everything belongs in the public cloud. He defines on-premises infrastructure — your own servers, routers, switches, databases and firewalls, illustrated by his two Dell servers at home — and contrasts its high upfront costs, citing examples of $119,000 for a server and $47,000 for a router, with renting cloud servers as an operating expense and scaling them up or down in clicks when traffic spikes. He credits the cloud with cloud-native features, especially microservices: breaking one large app into smaller services deployed in containers orchestrated by Kubernetes, which developers can update faster. Reasons to keep workloads on-prem, he says, include compliance and security rules such as GDPR, very large storage needs that get expensive in the cloud, and low-latency needs near users. Hybrid cloud — some apps in cloud, some on-prem — leads to his two complaints: on-prem lacks cloud-like features, and management fragments across on-prem tools plus, commonly, multiple clouds; he claims companies use around five providers on average, each with its own portal, services and certifications. The sponsored solution presented is Dell Technologies Cloud with VMware Cloud Foundation: use the same VMware tools (vCenter, vRealize) on-prem and in AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, vMotion VMs between data center and cloud — he demonstrates a migration dropping one ping — and run Kubernetes/containers on-prem via Tanzu on Dell EMC VxRail, so existing VMware engineers can use familiar skills everywhere.

Key takeaways

Hybrid cloud = place each app in cloud or on-prem based on fit, not cloud for everything
Cloud advantages cited: rental cost model, elastic scaling, containers/Kubernetes microservices
Keep on-prem for compliance (e.g. GDPR), expensive storage, or low-latency needs
Two complaints: on-prem lacks cloud features; multi-cloud fragments management and skills
Dell/VMware pitch: Cloud Foundation, vCenter/vRealize and vMotion unify management; Tanzu/VxRail bring Kubernetes on-prem
