What is a Hybrid Cloud?

A mixture of both Private and Public Cloud solutions, often partly tailored for a particular business need or requirements.

What is virtualisation, and how does it relate to cloud computing?

Virtualisation is the process of creating virtual versions of servers, applications, and networks. It is a foundational principle for building and managing systems within cloud computing environments.

What are some of the possible worries that might need to be mitigated against while using cloud based solutions?

1) Internet Dependency and Downtime, having to rely on the internet connectivity. 2) Security in the Cloud is a shared responsibility model, it depends on both the cloud provider and the client. 3) You may be locked into the terms and conditions of the Cloud provider and sometimes there are legal data regulations that apply depending on where the Cloud servers are located. Because of GDPR, many UK public businesses are careful in knowing what countries the Cloud servers are actually held in.
