Cloud bursting is a way to deal with one of IT’s constant challenges. Namely, balancing demand with the compute and storage capacity needed to fulfil it.
Cloud bursting allows an organisation to rapidly migrate datacentre workloads to the cloud’s theoretically unlimited compute and storage when required.
In this, hybrid cloud infrastructure combines fixed, on-premise infrastructure with the on-demand capacity of the cloud. But how does cloud bursting work, and how practical is it for day-to-day IT operations?
